Night Time Snacking

A MyObesityTeam Member asked a question 💭
Brooklyn, NY

I do fine all day. Eat a decent breakfast, lunch, and dinner with healthy snacks in between. Then in the evening after dinner I fall apart. Just can't weem to get enough to eat. I DO eat lots of fruit for snacks, but the fact is, I am overdoing it. Fruit is loaded with sugar. I just cannot get that scale to budge.
