how do you like to finish the night?
for me it's non-fat latte's
such a great thing to top the night with
the warm milk is so calming, gives you your calcium, and it really fills you up [caffeine does not keep me up, but if i do need to get to bed early i usually swap for decaf espresso.]
100 calories
and perfect for a snack during the day too to keep you until your next meal
lately, as an extra treat i've been getting just a touch of whip cream on top instead of sugar. i'd say it maybe adds 20-30 calories, but it makes it feel like a great dessert
i also love having a small bowl of special K with a handful of dried fruits if i'm still hungry
I like to end the day with a snack of Delights Yogart usally lemon or chocolate.

do you live near a coffee shop or make your own??
as of right now it's ice cream and popcorn. that's till i tire myself out on it and then it will change to something else. ice cream always stays the same but the popcorn might change.
actually both!
sometimes i work/go to school late so I just grab a cup on my way home
but when i'm not out i just make my own
i bought this little battery operated frother that makes great foam, and i have a little espresso maker that you just put on the stove like this

both were around $20
I would love to puchase a really good espresso machine later on when I can afford it
Any 100 calorie package I want.
I keep plenty stocked so that I have choices of something sweet, salty, chocolatey, etc.
(Lately, it's been popcorn with cinnoman on top that has been favored)
those 100packs are so self-destructive to me
i just can't stop grabbing and eating them.. and before i know it i'm at 400

I'm 5'1" so my secret is putting them on the top shelf in the kitchen. Then I have to get the stool to reach them and put the stool away in the closet (under the vaccum) before I even open the package.
It's sad that it comes to that, but it's such a pain to get to that I settle with just one.
hahah i'm short too [5'3]
but that still wouldn't work for me! i would just grab 10 the first time i step up
congrats on the self control though!
Depending on my mood, I like to end the night with a piece of good quality dark chocolate (or two), or a shot of Bailey's Irish Cream on ice (just under 100 cals).
The Bailey's is VERY satisfying when I want a special treat. Sometimes I sprinkle it with cinnamon.
Protein shake,stops me feeing hungry during the night.
with the weather getting colder i love cozying on the couch with a cup of hot tea before bed, i always keep a variety of caffeine free herbal tea flavors around.

ah :) See I have tea right after dinner (a fruity tea, like peach or raspberry, even chai, or vanilla almond - my latest obsession!), and wait an hour or so to have my chocolate - that way, it's both dessert and a treat before bed! ;)
