in Motivation and Support
Do you find yourself searching for something to snack on after dinner? Do you make healthy choices all day and right before bed you decide to go ahead and have a spoon or two of ice cream, a cookie, chips, etc.?

For some odd reason, this happens almost every night and you want it to STOP.

If this sounds like you, join us so we can support one another to beat late night snacking!

Take either dinner or a cut-off time to be the last time you eat for the day, after that time, you may have tea and water only.

Tally your progress daily for a monthly total.

For Example:
Me: 22 ~ LNS: 9

You may join at ANYTIME. You don’t have to be successful every day; you just have to do your best. We’re not perfect and we all have non-successful days but the goal is to NOT GIVE UP! And keep posting to help encourage the rest of us

    Hi, thats what I do, I dont allow myself to eat after 6.00pm (we have early dinner) and I tick off on a diary sheet every time I manage this. This then gives me the incentive to do it again next day so that I get another tick. I try to clean my teeth after 6.00pm so that it makes me even less likely to eat after this time. Trouble with me is if I start I cant stop so this definately works for me. If on the odd ocassion I do allow myself something small I then think oh well you have eaten after 6 you might just as well have something else and it then normally turns into a binge.

    I need this! Late night snacking is/has always been my downfall! I do great all day and then I screw it all up again. I work late every night so I'm giving myself until 8pm.

    10/1

    Me: 1 LNS: 0

    Filled up on lots of lean protein for my last meal and drank hot tea when I got the urge to snack. My greatest victory: Not attacking my son's oatmeal butterscotch cookies! :smokin:
