    I read somewhere you have more chance to get a heart attack if you eat close your bed time.
    My b/f eats a FULL meal before he goes to sleep. I keep telling him eat 2 hours before he goes to sleep but he said No!
    and die while in sleeping is a good way to go.

    Um. Never heard of that one. Heart attacks come from arterial plaque. I'm not sure I can see the link between eating and a heart attack, at least not in that sense.

    I agree with the trainer. I try to keep low calorie things in between me and the high calorie things, especially in the evening. For instance, the cakes and puddings are kept behind the apple slices and sugar free jello in the fridge. I practice "near-sightedness" at times such as this as best I can.

    The time of eating is not so important as the content and volume I think...
