How to stop night food cravings?!

[IWannaYama]

Ive been working out for years but lately have the hardest time not snacking at night. I literally will binge eat anything from chocolate to ice cream. When I get home from work I like to sit down and watch tv and enjoy some snacking food. I just go way over board. I cant have just 1 piece of anything without it triggering a snowball effect. I do really good all day. In the morning I'll have 9 egg whites 1 whole plus oatmeal, then brown rice, chicken, broccoli throughout the rest of the day. Its just the night that I cant handle. I make it sound like Im a fat kid but Im actually 6'1" 190lbs, lean all over except I lost my abs and now have some love handles. Need some help!!

Don't buy the food you binge on. Always have fruit and other healthy snacks on hand!! Whenever I'm craving something, I'll eat a handful of Almonds or something.

Sometimes I get cravings that are so intense that I'll literally drive to cvs and buy some haagen daaz, gummy worms and lindt truffles. Im so weak

Stop getting so high, just sayin.

I have had the same issue from time to time and the way IO get control is switch to protein shakes. Take some banannas that are almost too ripe freeze em and get some good protein powder (do some research before you buy some of the protein powders have large amounts of metals in them) then comes the Majic bullet. Get filled up on the good stuff like fruit. I am not an angel I will dominate some Reeses or M&Ms like an animal.

Bill you read my mind! Exactly what I was thinking...Haha


But seriously...For a while I wanted to stop drinking as much soda. However it is my addiction..I have never been a cigarette smoker(never even tried one) but have always been a big soda drinker. The way I did it was to only allow myself one soda a day...then any time after that one soda I would drink lemonade, orange juice, milk or water. I wouldn't even give myself the chance to get a soda. It worked out good but its all in your head.

Brush your teeth, rinse with Scope, then grab a bigass cup of water.

You're welcome.

What do you guys use for motivation? For me its always been the ladies. Recently got out of a 3 year relationship. I think a big part of it is that Im not over her and food helps me feel better temporarily.

You are missing an essential ingrediant if your a binge eating at night. ( Body is needing loads of sugar to compensate )....starving yourself during the day is the worst you can do, attempt to eat 6-7 little meals , like every 2-3 hours a snack best stuff with nuts, fruit etc

If you cant control it then go to the gym and put in a night shift every second day

Your weight is actulay really good I am 6'2 and currently at 212 down from 227 and working towards 200....

Sounds like you might as well give up, and let your inside fat kid come out. OR just say no to crack, and not drive to CVS. Sounds like you have a good meal plan during the day!
