    Great idea! i had to quit working in Mar '08 and got in the bad habit of staying up super late and then getting up late the next day. I really struggle at night. Not sure if I am actually hungry or just bored and eat to keep myself occupied. Just starting out today...will report back tomorrow if I can remember to get back here.

    Sorry I haven't logged in, but I have been adhering to the challenge anyway.
    Me: 5
    LNS: 0I have been tempted plenty, but this challenge and the desire to start the month off strong have kept me out of the kitchen!

    had to drive to meet my niece about 1 1/2 hours (3 hrs round trip) away to pick up great niece and nephew. they are spending the next several days with us. I can't drive without snacking. So I planned ahead kept dinner really light and took pretzel sticks and cuties for the drive & was home about 9:15. this is really a huge victory for me as driving usually involves candy, chips, etc.

    I used to work afternoons and got home after midnight....that would start my food fest as i tried to unwind from work :sad: I tend to be nocturnal now and have to work really hard to get to bed at a reasonable time and not eat mindlessly

    I had even planned to have some Peeps last night, had plenty of calories and put them on my diary before closing it out, & then never ate them.

    Super star, I am sorry you are struggling, but try to focus on the positive. You had 2 days without snacking. would you have done that before. Now build on that number 1 day at a time.

    Karen I am also a late night person & that is when I get on the computer & mindlessly snack. You are still ahead of LNS so good job.

    Everyone else seems to be doing great.

    I gave in last night. Had a late dinner at a diner after visiting my father-in-law at rehab and my night was thrown off. I knew i was past cut-off, but just didn't care. Hopefully, this won't be the beginning of a big detour!

    This is my biggest fallback, so I'm in. Nothing for me past 8.

    Zaza, is there an official cut off time? I think it would have to be your judgement on your day. Not everyone lives on the same schedule. And it's not healthy to skip dinner, just because of a time limit on this challenge. Don't let this set you back if you were in your calorie limit & ate a reasonable dinner, not a meal of empty calories.
