An update
What an amazing day! Roz and all my lightweight friends thank you so much for all of your responses and support. Today I asked my wonderful husband for the same. I requested his help in dealing with the carb monster that attacks me at night, or rather the carbs that I willingly ingest. While drinking our coffee on the porch this morning I confessed to my DH that I am having a terrible time at night after supper. I also verbalized my desire to not eat in the evening because it sets of a chain reaction of snacking non stop. My decision(just for today to start)was to not eat anything after dinner. Water, coffee, protein shake is o.k.
After a great food day, an hour of exercise, a heart to heart with my husband, I am now content that (just for today, at least) I will not be overeating the carbs that are my trigger food.
You can do this. Not easy, but doable. In part, it is just a habit and you need to change the routine. Get on the treadmill, take a walk, do something in the garden. Knit. You can do this.
