wow that is crazy...you can stop it though! Maybe intead of eating the sandwich w/ 2 peices of bread just use one and try not to use that much peanut butter! That should cut the calories in half!

I know how you feel. I used to eat like that before bed and it sucked because I used to not be able to sleep. You can break out of it though. Try drinking milk and then moving to water. You can do it!
