Miss Piggy's book, "How to keep from having crumbs in your bed" helped me. Seriously, how do you keep from having crumbs in your bed? Thats my biggest deterrent.
My next biggest deterrent from night eating has been heartburn. Once you start getting that, your problem will cure itself, eventually. Nighttime heartburn that keeps you awake all night?
I think your best chance of change would be to make 2 new habits: 1, a nice tea during the day where you consume most of your days calories, and 2, a luxurious bath before bed.
