Late night snacking

"Tea Expert" well, I do own a tea business, give tea parties and have graduated from Tea school. Tea on it's own is Non caloric. The caffeine content in tea is "usually" less than 1/2 that of coffee. Tea is a good thing to drink if you have trouble with water. I even put some splenda in mine!

Ruschell - I never had the midnight-snacking problem, but I've sure done more than my share of snacking at other times! I know it's hard to get it under control, and it takes a lot of focus and determination sometimes. I know you can get it back under control, though. Best of luck to you. Hang in there and keep posting. Carlita

Hi Carlita, Thank you so much, it's hard but I have to get back in the right way of eathing healthier... I can do this, just hard...but I can... Best, Ruschell

possibly late night snacking could also be a problem when I do not consume enough calories during the day.

Oh My God! You described me. Everything you said are things I am having issues with too. I go for my 1yr post op appointment next week (even though I am 14mths out...I'm a little late). I am going to talk to them about my snacking issue. I feel as though it may be something related to by blood sugar levels. I wake up in the middle of the night and MUST have a piece of meat. And I don't heat it up in the microwave, I eat it COLD!. It is so weird. I will let you know what I find out.

I am doing better when I find my self snacking I reach for lunch meat turkey and cheese rolled up or before I go to bed that am still hungry I eat a bowl of oatmeal..so far so good,, and I drink atkins protein shake and a fruit.
