Diet issues part two - eating after 8pm

Ok I have this unfortunate problem, I'm good for most of the day in terms of healthy eating, drinking water etc.

But when it's like 9pm, I get this uncontrollable urge to consume crap, does anyone else get this? Like when studying for exams. I have to eat, weird! :rolleyes:

It's really annoying because I am STILL freakn 52 kgs, I have not lost any more weight over the past week, and I didn't understand why until now (for those that don't know, I went on a diet about a month ago and lost 5 kilos, but I'm not able to lose any more?!? :confused:

*is mad, at herself :biggrin:

* ).

What are ways I can combat this problem so can get down to 49 or at least 50 effectively, and so that I don't wake up groggy? :smile:

Thankies,

Luv DB_x

if you like eating in the evening why not just do so, and reduce the eating during the day to balance it

I have the same.I barely eat throughout the day then it gets quite late and I'm like 'OOOH CHOCOLATE!'

I think about whether I actually am hungry or whether I am just being a greedy person.

And then I find that looking at this:

stops me(I know it's from a pro-ana site and I'm not anorexic but it still helps!).

Try having a sweet drink instead.And lock all the crap you want to eat away so you have to go to the trouble of getting it out...

LOL @ that webpage :laugh:

I should print it out hey :wink:

Don't think it would help much tho, I mean come on like it's that hard not to be their weight :eek:

Anyway 52 kgs is a bit over 8.0 stone right? Which = not good, I'm meant to be 8 stone as it says that on my Ozmodel portfolio :redface:

Would love to be something like 48 kgs, but no less than that! That'd be going too far on my 171cm/5'7 frame, therefore IMO 50 kilos would be perfect. :smile:

So only 2-3 kilos to go (this is the hard part! The last few kilos are always the most difficult to shred!)

But also eating less at night is a morning thing as well, do you find you wake up feeling refreshed when you DON'T eat much the night before? :smile:

At around 9pm do you find yourself doing nothing really?
if so this is probablly the reason for your urges as your unoccupied so the idea of eating crap seems good.
If this is the case then find some other activites to occupy yourself

I used to weigh 10 stone...it all seemed to drop off over the summer and when I started uni though.Odd because you are supposed to gain weight during uni?

Perhaps the stresses of uni work wise loses you weight aswell???

Yep, all in the industry. When you're surrounded by girls who are a mere size 6-8 on all your promo shifts (such as I was today after uni for a particular assignment... but that's another story :p:
