I've heard of hanging things by the door. I was going to try putting a couple things up on the fridge and in the bedroom..

 I think my real problem overall is how anxious and uncomfortable i feel if I dont give into the habit.. I really have a terrible time sleeping because of it.

 I eat very healthy during the day, and the 2000 calories is my total daily burn, my RMR is about 1350. I'm moderately active.

 Have you developed any bedtime rituals that help you sleep?

Go ahead and eat a light snack before bed. Sugar and caffeine will keep you up, so avoid those things, like cakes, processed carbs, cookies, chocolate, etc. Also, keep the fibre content low, as it's easier on your belly at night not to have a bowl of all bran working its way through!

Your body burns hundreds and hundreds of calories while you sleep, so don't worry about that whole, eating before bed makes you fat myth.

I personally love toast before bed. Or toasted pita bread and organic apple butter. Sometimes, I even just eat a tablespoon of peanut butter, licking off a spoon like a lollipop. mmmm!

well, my current goal is to see 129 on the gym scale, since I feel it's more accurate than my home  scale, which reads 128 currently in the morning (Gym reads 132, but afternoon..)

 I have seen pictures, and they look good. But I'm still to insecure about my legs.

 I strength train my whole body at least twice a week in split sets, and I bike about 40 minutes a day, 5 days a week, to work and back (which will stop soon, as it gets cold and snowy.. canadian winters are not meant for biking.. :(

I'm lightly active otherwise, walk frequently (I don't have a car, so i have to walk to get around)

I cook alot and clean frequently, but not too exceptional..
