    Please do not violate the tenants. Not even if they skip rent.

    I was starving last night (8pm) after a second workout so I had three bowls of cereal haha.
    I woke up to my weekly weigh in and I still lost weight.
    Calories in vs calories out.

    But i still wouldnt recommend eating so late because if you go straight to bed it can cause digestive problems >__< (cramps, bloat, gas, trouble sleeping etc)

    For some, yes, but not everyone. Thursday nights I eat around 9:30 then go to bed between 10 and 11. Saturdays I eat at 5:30 and go to bed right after (I work third shift Saturday nights). I've never felt any ill effects from eating late/just before bed.

    But not everyone has those problems if they eat late at night right before bed.

    I sleep much better with food on my stomach.

    I eat up to 11:30pm. Then go to bed within an hour.

    Yeah, I'm one of the ones who doesn't sleep well if I eat right before bed. But I find it depends on what it is. If I eat something light I'm fine, but if it's something heavy (like a full meal vs. a snack) then yeah I don't sleep well.

    Also, I'm not sure if there's any science to this ? But it seems I'm heavier in the mornings if I ate right before bed versus mornings I ate hours before bed.
