This is a very interesting conundrum! Are you semi-conscious or conscious? If only semi, or you ever have no memory, or you feel like you can't control your movements, def get yourself checked by a heath care provider to make sure there's no underlying issues (hormonal, neurological, psychological, sleep disorder etc).…

Darn it! I didn't eat enough dinner. Maybe I was trying to make up for the schnitzel the previous night? Still, I was legitimately hungry late last night (not just snacky) but eating more was not planned and put me over the calorie limit for the day so I'm still counting it as a LNS win.

Oh no!! But don't worry, today is another day. The snacks will not win!

I didn't snack last night... but: I over-ate at dinner. I went out for dinner and, despite promising myself I would order the salad, I ordered the chicken parmi. I didn't eat most of the crumb or too many chips, but I'm sure I consumed at least 500 calories. So, I was still too full for LNS. Still.. a success?? o:) Me: 6*…

Me: 5* LNS: 5 Streak: 3! Cups of tea are working wonders.

CBT is Cognitive Behavioural Therapy. In very basic terms, it is retraining your brain (like training your muscles). One exercise, which can be used for a number of negative thoughts, is thanking your brain for the negative thought and then saying no to the thought. Some examples: I can’t do this/I will fail/anxiety –…

I did it! I took a CBT approach ("thank you, brain, for those thoughts [go eat] but I've had dinner, I'm no longer hungry and I don't need more food, so I won't be listening to you tonight") along with a mix of suggestions from the group (I made a nice cup of tea and read my book). Me: 3 LNS: 5 Streak: 1 Thanks everyone!…

@johicks what a great idea!! I'll adapt this slightly and use it myself. @Tolamarie Thank you! I will read back for some ideas.

Is it too late to join this group? I have a terrible time with late night snacking. I eat healthy all day etc, but then binge late at night. This is my first ever post in the forums, but I need to ask for help. Not sure, but likely the month so far would look like this: Me:2 LNS: 5 I think @johicks had the right idea with…
