I have lost 20 lbs-43 years old but pushing 44.
Here is what I have to offer, because I KNOW what you mean!
General Foods International coffee, the sugar free french vanilla is 25 cals a serving and is rich and creamy and satisfies a sweet tooth.
Orville Redenbacher 100 calorie pack buttered popcorn is brilliant for a salty/crunchy crave. Claussed Pickle spears come in at 5 calories a spear. These are guilt free go-to snacks. Oh, almost forgot, Delmonte makes sugar free mandarin oranges, these are SO good!
I have also heard if you wait 15 minutes the crave will go away. I don't think so! = )

I was thinking about the comment of getting away from the TV. Maybe we should take a poll and see how many commericials an hour advertise food or show people eating.
It's just not during the news its all during prime time, restaurant commercials. I do not snack as much if I read a book after dinner then if I watch tv.
Maybe they could start showing a few fitness commercials to balance it out.

I drink hot herbal tea with some sweetner like stevia or splenda. It takes a few minutes to make the tea, so it's not a quick grab like chips or ice cream. And then it takes a while to drink since its hot, and the sweetness really does mentally satisfy my hunger for sugary foods. I suffered from the same thing as you for a long time. If I'm craving crunchy, I make air-popped popcorn with I can't believe it's not butter spray. (0 calories)

I get a late night snack urge too, but luckily its not every night. Try a LF yogurt-Light and Fit have the lowest calories. I will always drink a 16oz water or Crystal light to start with. If all else fails I get off my butt and away from the TV and go clean something. Last night I deep cleaned the bathroom and then drank more water. I completely avoided unhealthy snacking It's worth a try!

Can anyone give me some ideas on how to not overeat in the evening? Once I start (even if I have something healthy) I can't stop. If it starts with a piece of a chocolate bar, it eventually ends up being the whole bar and then some. I don't think I am even hungry. I have tried unsuccessfully night after night. Thanks.
