New Challenge Tonight

  • Hi, Everyone,

    I have formed a habit of eating late at night/in the middle of the night. While I am a pretty healthy eater and don't have severe weight issues, the snacking makes me feel sluggish and unhealthy (note: I eat A LOT when I snack...and I am not hungry when I snack).

    Tonight I am starting a challenge to go three days without snacking at night. My hope is that I can start with three days, and slowly work my way up to breaking the habit altogether (it worked for running - took me a year, but I can finally run 5 miles!).

    Anyway, I was hoping to find some support and accountability here. I would like to be able to "check in" and share my success/get some support from those that have struggles they are trying to overcome or have been successful in overcoming.

    Thanks, everyone! Day 1 - here we go!

    Day 1 was a success. Day 2, here I go!
  • Good luck to you with this challenge, Berg! That's a habit than can really cause some weight gain. I wish you success.
  • Thank you!!! Just aiming for one day at a time.
  • Day 2 was a struggle. But starting fresh today.

    How are you doing?
  • Going on a retreat this weekend, but hoping to join back in on Monday. PM snacking is my downfall and is how I put on weight. Hoping you success on day 3!
  • Hi Berg, how are you doing with your challenge? I decided to start up an old challenge and hope you and others will join me. It's called 'Forming New Habits - 21 Day Challenge'. You can find it in Chicks up for a Challenge or at this link:
