Me: 2 LNS: 0 Amanda What's your trigger food? When I was snacking a lot at night, I used to eat a bunch of the Snyders Pretzel pieces honey mustard. Hubby bought a huge BJs size bag of it, and it felt like it was my crack. I physically had to move away from it. I'm going to bed early; already brushed my teeth and put in my…

I am going to try this, but it may feel disappointing since my loss rate is so slow. I would be ecstatic if I lose 2# this month. 4'11" February Start Weight: February Goal Weight: Ultimate Goal Weight: Feb1 : Feb 8: Feb15: Feb 22: Feb 28: Amanda

Thank you for keeping the Challenge going. My January diet program wouldn't have gone as well as it did if it weren't for the January No LNS Challenge. Amanda

Me: 31 yay! LNS: 0 Amanda I ate my body weight in carbs today, but I didn't snack after dinner. Let's go February!

Part 1 of the treats: Happy 18th wedding anniversary to me (and hubby) (tomorrow; but bakery is closed tomorrow) OMG: the croissant takes me back to Paris!!! - Laminated brioche (it looks like a giant kouign amann) - tarts: -- pineapple/coconut -- coffee/walnut couronne (my preference is no nuts to disturb the smooth yummy…

Me: 30 LNS: 0 Amanda 1 more day! I've never gone an entire month without snacking at night. Most days were not too bad, but I did have 2-3 tough nights, where I felt like I was going to revert back to previous bad habits of aimlessly snacking while working late at night. But I held strong. The NO LNS challenge really helps…

I like your outlook of trying new activities. I'm way shorter than you (4'11"), but my 1st goal is 115 (I'm at 123 right now), so I thought we could get there together. I'm focusing my energy right now on eating at a deficit and lower carbs, so I haven't been working out that much YET. I haven't done a split in several…

Me: 29 LNS: 0 Amanda Excited! Only 2 days for an entire month sweep!

Me: 27 LNS: 0 Amanda Really wanted a snack last night when I was working late. Had to refrain from going back to my old ways: snacking while working/accounting work.

Not snacking at night is helping me lose weight. I'm on day 24 of no LNS late night snacking. It used to be a BAD problem. 1. I would seriously be eating my last bite of my dinner and am immediately thinking about what snack I would eat next. 2. Sometimes my day would be perfect in terms of number of calories and my…

Me: 24 LNS: 0 Amanda It's also my 24th day of food diary logging, which is a rare feat. I usually trail off and forget after the 2nd week or so.

Me: 23 LNS: 0 Amanda Anyone doing anything special for Valentine's Day? Any treats?

Me: 21 LNS: 0 Amanda I am full, but I really want to eat something. DH came home from the market with SOOOO many goodies: - black and white cookies - 4 huge bags of chips - 2 boxes of crackers - of course ice cream (I don't think he's ever left any supermarket with buying ice cream) and we have leftover pizza. Going to…

"Want more" in terms of calories? Or a 2nd serving but later in the night? Being on this diet, I am eating at a deficit. So that I don't go to bed hungry, I allocate more calories to dinner. If you allocate your calories properly, you can split your dinner into 2 so that the 2nd meal is not consider a LNS.

Me: 19 LNS: 0 Amanda My 18yr wedding anniversary is in exactly 2weeks (Monday) and yes, I'm counting down because I'm going to have a few treats. Probably have them on Sunday (since the bakery is not open on Monday). What would your treats be?

OMG: thank goodness for this Challenge. I went downstairs to get some water before bed, and I look over and there's the last slice of chocolate cream pie topped with whipped cream just sitting there. I thought about this Challenge, about how I don't want to lose my streak by sneaking a bite of the pie, and practically ran…

Me: 17 LNS: 0 I can't "diet" for too long before I kinda lose it. I'm near breaking point, so I need to schedule in some planned "treats" or I'm going to binge everything in sight. Amanda

Just my inputs here: 1. While working out is very important, if it came down to time dedicated to working out vs time to prep/create balanced meals that fit into your calories, skip the working out (for now). I have 16# to lose and for me, right now, it's requiring a lot of focus and concentration to have the proper food…

Me: 16 LNS: 0 A wagon wheel sounds fabulous! Daughter's Girl Scout cookies are arriving next week. I need to stay strong! Amanda

Going strong!!! WTG!

Me: 13 LNS: 0 Going to bed early today, because I ate up all my allotted calories by 4pm (stupid high-dense calories of peanuts), and I don't want to be tempted by anything. Amanda

What's a wagon wheel?
