    I go to bed around 10:30/ 11. With the new job and new house, I sometimes don't even start dinner until 7 o'clock. For me it's not an option- I have to eat supper. I eat when I'm hungry.

    truthfully - i eat till my calories are filled . if i dont like the number or want to eat more, i exercise till i have earned it , usually the urge to eat whatever has abated by the time i have completed enough exercise to "earn" it ...

    but I am a WAHM - so i can take mini breaks from work to exercise almost any time..

    Meal Frequency will have no bearing on weight loss. Just make sure you are hitting your calorie and macro goals for each day... I take a 500-600 calorie snack to bed with me every night and have lost a few pounds.... Best of Luck

    I eat as late as I need to, I also work shifts so sometimes I have my 'lunch' at 10pm and my 'dinner' at 3am!!
    Generally on my normal days I eat dinner at around 7-7:30pm.But I generally always have a snack after that too. I like eating watching a movie or tv!!

    The only time I don't eat is when I'm actually sleeping...it gets too messy.

    I'm so glad to hear that I was crazy for falling for the junk science!
    I will happily eat my calories, even near bedtime, and just watch to see how my body responds to it.
    No more sniffing the bag and drinking water while hubby eats a snack. :-)
    Thanks for the input!

    I do have a cut off time and it is 8 pm. One of my bad eating habits was to snack all night after dinner so now I make sure all my food is accounted for and logged in MFP then I am done for the day. Start again tomorrow. At first it was difficult now it is no big deal because I am learning self control and learning not to graze.

    I should probably implement a cutoff time for food but I often stay up until 2 or 3 am so it's hard :frown: I try not to eat anything a couple of hours before I go to bed, though, because it always makes me feel sick.

    I eat right up until 30 mins before bed, and have done for a long time.
    That means I am sometimes still eating at 3am.
    Did not stop me getting to 12-14% bodyfat either.

    I don't eat after six. There is no physiological reason for it, it's psychological.

    Oh, man. I don't know if this is bad or not but I usually eat dinner around 5 or 6 and then eat a snack around 9ish. I usually don't sleep until 12. I'm a night owl.

    I do not have a cut off time that I stop eating.

    I just stop eating when I feel like it.

    Sometimes that's a few minutes before midnight, if I stay up late.

    I just don't eat after midnight, for personal reasons.

    I don't have a limit...if I have enough calories left, I'll eat at 11pm or even 3am if I'm hungry. It's worked fine for me so far :)
