    I think as a society our relationship with food is so far gone that a lot of us ask ourselves questions like this....because someone saw on Oprah or Dr. Oz not to eat after a certain hour. A calorie is a calorie, time is time. Hunger is hunger. Eat when your hungry, but not too much, and only until you are full. Follow that advice and your gonna have a better time.

    As long as you're within your calorie limits, go for it. I budget some calories for night snacks every day.

    Its never too late to eat. I eat whenever I want. Sometimes up to 800 calories directly before bed. Still losing fat.

    Add me to the long list of people who got to their goal weight eating a substantial bed time snack. Usually PB&J on an English muffin. I also like fiber rich fruits like apples, since fiber keeps me fuller longer.

    You have a good reason to eat late as you're way under your daily calorie goal. I on the other hand am not and just made penne with walnut and sage butter sauce.......damn those late night cravings! LOL

    It's never too late to eat. Especially when you are so much under your daily calorie intake. Eat up!

    Eat something simple/light. You won't burn in hell for eating some toast or a light sammich. It keeps you from waking up hungry tomorrow and devouring everything in sight. Allow yourself to be HUMAN! Go ahead and eat something tonight but keep it reasonable. After 20 minutes, if you're still hungry then munch again on something reasonable.

    The alternative is eating an entire frozen pizza in one sitting and insomniacs like me enduring your self-loathing rants about eating THAT.

    It doesn't matter when in the day (or night) you eat. Your body cannot tell time.

    800 calories left huh? Pint of Ben & Jerry's ought to do the trick. Then fall into your food coma clockwork orange style. Thats what I would do.

    Personally I eat up to 11:30pm everyday. I just don't exceed my calorie limit.

    I eat right before bed almost every night. I'm eating right now actually (It's 12:30 am here). I've gone from about 150 lbs to 126 lbs and from a 12-10 to a 6-4 pant/dress size. I think the no eating late thing is a myth.
