Then I don't get a chance to eat until lunch. Does…

Major slipping
I seem to have the hardest time keeping to eating healthy in the evenings and on the weekends. From breakfast to mid-day snack I'm fine. I eat a max of about 900 calories up until then. That leaves me with about 700 available for dinner. For one I know that's too much. I know that during breakfast I eat around 300 calories…

Views on Late Night Eating
Lately I have been undereating during the day and find myself with about 300 calories left by 9:00 p.m. I usually go to bed around 10 or so, so should I be eating that many calories so late at night? Does anyone have advice on a time I should not eat after, or if not should I maybe eat something smaller at night? Thanks…
