2. Reasons I Eat Late
• Tired
• Hungry but mostly just tired
• Didn’t eat a good dinner (compensating)
• Want to eat something sweet
• Bored
• Late social events with food
3. Interventions
• Set specific time to stop eating @ 8:00 pm
•
Goal setting
• Cell phone reminder message daily at 7:45
and 8:00 pm “Time to stop eating”
• Sign in my cupboards, “8 o’clock? Stop
eating!!!”
•
Habit formation
4. Results
• Setting a specific time didn’t help (0/7)
• Text was more helpful in reminding me of
my commitment when I was away from
home (3/7)
• Sign in my cupboards didn’t influence my
behavior
• Thoughts of social pressure influential
5. Future Exploration
• Getting rid of all or nothing measure
• Because reasoning behind late snacks
varied, I need to come up with different
interventions for each underlying issue
