NIGHT MONSTER!
I am coming back to Fat Secret.
I eat pretty well during the day. I walk 3-4 miles for work and 1-4 for exercise almost daily. I am in decent shape, at least decently fit for a 49 year old and pretty active on weekends but I have gained back a lot of the weight that I lost a few years back. I have a pretty stressful job, and I like my down time at night...staying up late watching sports or shows, and SNACKING!!I think this has undone most of my hard work, and I will try to curtail it. I have quite a few buddies here who never went away. I lost 40 plus pounds a few yeas back and I worked my butt off to do it. This site was and is an awesome tool...with the right mindset. Its not a diet. Its a lifestyle change. Its not fast, its slow, but it sure feels good to succeed.

recipies for left over roast beef?
I mix in a skillet with sautéed onion, boiled diced potato's, egg beaters and fat free shredded cheddar, and salsa and make either breakfast burritos, or breakfast muffins.

Nightime Hunger?
A huge thing for me was cutting out diet sodas. They have no calories, but they make you hungry. I think that in my last year of relaxing my diligence a bit, Going back to drinking them fairly regularly was a big contributor to slipping. Also, a cat named PEEFAT gave me a good tip early on: Cottage cheese, 1/2 cup with a little fruit in it. Protein squashes the hunger. Mangos are my favorite in it. DRINK WATER TOO!

Restarting a diet after weight gain
Yep.
Im in the same boat. Re committing. Not to diet, but to getting back to better choices. Crept up around 15 lbs after losing 40. Felt waaaay to good in smaller5 clothes to go back to the big ones. Im logging again and that is the biggest key to success in my experience. Keeps me vigilant.
