WOW, this board is, well, like hitting me with a board. I would meet ALL of my weight goals if I could simply resist snacking during the night. Soooo sign me up! I did not pass day 1. Cottage cheese just seemed great at 1AM....
ANY tips will be greatly appreciated too. I could use some creative ways to deal with the urges. Maybe a "shocker" on the fridge door! Maybe accountability will help, so someone here sign up as my bully and say really mean things if I get off track.
1 night at a time.

Hopefully my ticker shows up below, I have not tried it yet.

Point 1: you can do it!
Point 2: show us girls that guys can do this too
Point 3: brush your teeth and get a bottle of watter and put a "don't enter" post on the kitchen door
Point 4: report here every day. It gets embarassing when you have to reset the counter. At night, you'll be thinking of us staring at you as you grab something from the fridge.
Point 5: I hate to say this, but don't make me grab the board!
Nice having you among us, Raymond :flowerforyou:0 -
Day 2 is DONE!!!!!!!! What has helped me is reading all the new posts on here every day. I am tired of being embarrassed at having to start over every couple of days!:yawn:
You guys ROCK!:bigsmile:0 -
Good morning-
I am so thrilled everyone is doing great. :happy:
To the newcomers especially, you really can do this.
I have been messing up on my calories again, but I am sticking to my cut-off time. It really helps to know that all the nonsense stops at a set time and that I am accountable to this group.
Raymond, dewdrop had some excellent suggestions. Another one I like to add is flossing and/or bleaching your teeth. You can't eat or drink anything with white strips or trays in your mouth.:laugh: Also, after I have gone to the time and trouble of flossing my teeth, I'm not about to have anything else for the night.
Keep up the great work everyone. Here's to making it through Day 3 tonight!:drinker:

Yikes, here comes the board…. Thump! :explode:
OK… I was pumped to make it but…..a 90 cal granola bar and some wheat thins tripped me up. I can’t lie about it so I’ll take the beating!!!! :sad: :sad: :sad:
Great tips and encouragement! I did brush before bed and love the tip about whitening tray. I’ll try that tonight since it’s time for a refresher. I was at my daily cal target and will get in a good long run tonight.

Day 2 down.
zaza: I have been so bad. I have not been feeling well but that isn't a good reason to eat everything that isn't nailed downI have to get back on track. At least I am sticking to the cutoff time....maybe cuz there isn't anything left to eat in the house :laugh:
Have a great day

Day 2 down for me too!
I was so proud of myself. I cut myself off at 10:30 even though I didn't go to bed until after 1. Around midnight I wanted a pudding and I didn't go for it. I talked myself out of it. This challenge is a great motivator!!
Good Luck to all!0 -

I'm sorry I had to laugh at the "maybe cuz there isn't anything left to eat in the house" comment. I can so relate. LOL0 -
Yes, it would be funnier if it weren't so close to being the truth
Good job on turning away from temptation. This thread really does keep me from eating past my cutoff time. I see all of you 'watching' me! :glasses: (that's me in disquise :happy: )0 -
