    I have started eating popcorn. Seems to do the trick and the calories are very low!!

    I have eggs whites, cottage cheese or fruit (usually asian pear) before bed. If I do a late workout, I eat a Luna bar.

    I HATE going to bed hungry.

    I also am a late night snacker, I fought the habit for years. But I go to TOPS & one of our lessons recently said it is not only ok to have a snack before bed, but good for you, as it helps keep your metabolism level. Like they say to eat small meals every couple of hours all day, then we go 7 - 10 hours with nothing. Just keep the calories for at night & try to eat something healthy. I use pudding cups, fruit, a serving of cereal, & sometimes popcorn. It just depends on if I'm in the mood for something sweet or something crunchy.

    I have the HARDEST time not eating before I go to bed. I have been doing this for as long as I can remember and I dont know how to give it up! I know its one of the WORSE things to do! What do I do? Or what can I eat that wont be so bad before bed???

    No, it's not the worse thing to do. It's not even a little bit bad. It's neutral. Like breathing.

    Because I work out in the evenings I have a high protein snack every night about an hour before bed. Every night. So long as you have the allotted calories, it truly doesn't matter when you eat them. Snacking at night hasn't slowed down my loss at all ... take a look below. :happy: If you have the calories and you're hungry, eat!! :flowerforyou:
