One of the toughest things for me about losing weight is late night snacking...I just love a big bowl of cereal around 9 or 10pm. It's the best! I started that habit when I was pregnant with my second child and have continued that at least 3-4 nights a week. That child is now 5 years old!! I know my metabalism is slowing down so if I keep that habit up for another 5 years I will not be able to lose weight, plus I will slowly gain weight. So I made a goal not to eat passed 7pm.
Have I been following through with that goal?
Umm, sadly NO. I have broken that goal at least twice a week still.
I was thinking of other ways I could conquer this goal...and when I saw this I laughed:
haha! Awesome. Maybe putting a mirror in my fridge after dinner so if I am tempted to get some milk for a bowl of cereal at 9pm I can see myself and STOP!
Not a bad plan, huh?
Or I could do something like this too...
But seriously though, does anyone have any suggestions on how I can stop cravings at night?? Anyone else suffer from this???
I just posted about drinking herbal tea to help with cravings- I totally do this at night! It gives me something to consume, but it's zero calories. Plus it's calming. You should try it.
