    This is a great topic for me. My main reason for doing MF Pal is to get my terrible diet under control. My biggest downfall is late night snacking. I do well with eating all day and exercise at the YMCA 5-6 times per week. But when I get home from the gym it's Fruit loops, Ghirardelli's, Kozy Shack.....
    Normally I'm up till midnight snacking, so I'm starting with a modest goal of no snacking after 10:00 PM.

    You can do this *almacdee*. Looks like you and I are in the same boat. I have been what I now know as *skinny fat* all my life. I've been with MFP now for 200 days. I've gone the gamut of almost reaching my weight goal (and now I am TOTALLY UNDER)...going for my high school weight, with the intention of losing body fat that I've carried around since my first child was born 40 years ago. I just became a grandma two years ago...had a heart attack 3 years ago...something I was MOST surprised about...and did a LOT of LATE NIGHT SNACKING!! I found this group in late June...did well for a few days..went on vacation...and just threw my cares to the wind. I want to be healthy and see my grandchildren graduate from COLLEGE!! My only claim to having good genes is my Auntie who is now 89 years old. I want to live into my 90's...be strong of mind, body, and spirit...soooo it is STILL not too late to START. I not letting a small heart attack happen again! Wow...long winded...but...you are doing it right...with your modest goal. GOOD LUCK! We all have our reasons for joining MFP. Add me as a friend if you would like. SUPPORT is CRUCIAL...:drinker: Lifting my glass of water. I have also set drinking 8 glasses of water a day to my regime....I see that it is making a difference already...though I know I am supposed to do this already :) Take care!!!! :flowerforyou:

    Well I give myself 1 point for the past 2 nights. I have decided my problem. I eat in my bed. I eat lunch in my bed. I eat breakfast and supper in my bed. I am depressed so I spend a lot of time in my bed. I am doing better but the eating has stuck. I crochet and knit and I do those in my bed. I have got to migrate meals to my kitchen and hobbies to my couch. Sleep to my bed. Maybe soon I can start having me 1 and LNS 0

    Thanks for encouragement guys

    The weekend away was super-busy, but also meant I wasn't late-night snacking and just hopped into bed, dead-tired, at the end of each day!
