    I thought this was going to be a thread about midnight snacks. Big midnight snacks. I'm out.

    You'll have even more time to burn those calories if you fly through time zones ;-)

    So that's how Santa gets away with eating so many cookies on Christmas Eve.

    Not sure Santa is a great role model for weight loss methods LOL

    My pudding, eaten in bed, was banana and ice cream. I failed to eat the bananana seductively, so no post-prandial exercise for me.

    Still, no crumbs, so that's a win.

    "Barry say it! "You can eat my pudding!!!"" :D

    Thought I'd wrap up the ongoing series about meal timing so here goes.

    Should I eat my biggest meal at midnight since if I eat at 12:00 a.m. I will have all the way until 11:59 p.m. to burn the calories?

    At midnight a large percentage of people are usually sleeping. Based on the theory that meal timing doesn't matter, maybe its okay. But a full stomach just before getting into bed causes discomfort.

    I failed to have my main meal at midnight tonight, and am now lying in bed at nearly 2am, feeling slightly hungry, and will probably have to get a milky drink at least, or I won't sleep at all.

    PROOF that eating at midnight is best.
