binge eating at night.
I have been doing very well dieting during the day, and then i come home in the evening, and it doesn't matter if i'm not even really that hungry, i end up binge eating at night. usually peanut butter, almond butter, anything like that. does anyone else struggle with this? and if so, how do you control the urge?
