Hi. I am a 31 y/o female vegatarian and I am eating A LOT of peanut butter right before I go to bed. I eat it by the spoonful straight out of the jar. Each night I tell myself that I won't eat like that again tomorrow night, but when tomorrow night comes, I find myself doing the same thing.
During the day I watch what I eat very strictly, and I walk 45 minutes daily and exericse lightly in the evening and feel good, but night time eating is my weakness. I don't know how to stop and I was hoping that I could get some support here and to help me change my night time peanut butter binge. Granted, it is the natural peanut butter without the transfat and additives, but when I stop and think about how many calories I am actually consuming, it is well over 1200.
What would be a good night time snack that would fill me up and not make me put on the pounds? Also, I weigh 123lbs and to me that is a 5lb weight gain that I don't like. I've been borderline anorexic in the past, but now I struggle with exercise bulimia. I have never binged and purged by making myself throw up or using laxatives, I just feel the need to exercise off whatever I eat. Ugh, if anyone could help me out I'd be very grateful.
Thanks.
