DeLarla 22 Posted September 20, 2005 Mine aren't cravings - they are evil demons with 9 inch claws and sharpened fangs. I can't fight them alone, so I started a new hobby that keeps me too busy for TV. TV is a nasty culprit. Keep busy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Anwyn 0 Posted September 20, 2005 I'm a nighttime eater too. The only thing that has ever helped me is doing cross stitch, or some other needlework project. When I'm working I have to make sure my hands are clean, so I can't snack. It works pretty well, but my daughter wants to sit on my lap every time I pick it up, so I haven't been working on it lately. It makes me feel a little less guilty to watch tv when I multitask...

Jachut 487 Posted September 20, 2005 I'm not usually hungry at night - but that's generally because I have eaten my fill at my particular danger times - late morning (after which I dont want lunch) and late afternoon (because I didnt eat lunch) and then I eat my dinner which I didnt want anyway because I ate late afternoon. But I do like a coffee after dinner. When I've been dieting and I'm actually hungry after dinner I go to bed early, lol. I tell myself I can last for an hour or two because I'm going to bed anyway. Its when the entire afternoon stretches before me that I cant resist because I know I'm going to have to keep up the willpower for four, five hours. Oh, we eat late too becuase Doug doesnt get home till about 7.30. Would it be worth trying to delay dinner a bit if your daughter can last? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
