I got some greek yogurt from costco the other week...they were pretty good a little on the thick side but good none the less...I just try eating a piece of toast with cottage cheese and honey that works as long as it doesnt get stuck that is....

I used to do the evening snack thing, but to be honest, it never resolved the issue. After I finished my sugar free Jello, I just wanted another and another. It had nothing to do with hunger and everything to do with bad habits.

I find the only thing that helps is to keep my hands busy. So I needlepoint, quilt or scrapbook while watching tv in the evenings. It's working so far.

I agree, if I let myself, I would snack all night. One thing I do to help aleviate this is, don't watch commercials! My husband and I have talked about this many times, if you are watching television after about 7:00, a huge amount of the commercials are about food. We either watch a movie or DVR our favorite shows and watch them the next night

I also try adjusting my eating schedule so that I eat later, sometimes 8pm. Then I am too full to munch. I get on the computer, play games, do housework. If I have to succomb to a snack, I make myself log it even if I have not logged any other food-- I then say if you are going to eat this, you are going to have to work them off! That works because some of the junk is not worth it.

I will usually save my sugar free pudding for an after dinner snack. Your idea of doing something with your hands is a much better idea. It also takes your mind off eating when you have to think about your knitting etc.

I also need to find a way to keep myself busy, during the day I am very good about what I eat and how much but at night I struggle. I decided to take a knitting and crochet class (to see which one I like more) at Joann Fabics so I can give myself something to do at night to keep my mind off food.< /p>

After work I come home and exercise for about 30-40 minutes, have dinner that is what works for me and has kept me from becoming a raving munchie nut!
