    I hope its ok cause I go to bed with Chocolate Milk, Almonds and Crave Double Chocolate cereal every night for my bedtime snack. If it fits in your daily calorie deficit, it's all good............

    I often eat after 7pm, no big deal - just give your digestion a couple of hours to cope with it before bed.

    On NO account however eat after midnight !

    Why not eat after midnight? Hell if its after midnight it goes on to the NEXT days calories!!
    Let me guess... you're under 30. Google "gremlins midnight"

    The 80's were a hell of a decade.

    It makes absolutely no difference when you eat. The human metabolism is not so delicate that not eating breakfast, or eating right before bed, will change anything.

    Can you eat a bit later? I eat dinner no earlier than 7, and often around 8, then I am full up til bed!

    Totally ignore all advice against eating at night. I have snacks every night. I just save calories for them!

    This is true but I've found if you eat too close to sleeping hours you can feel uncomfortable in the abdominal region when you lie down after a heavy meal, or if you've only had a light snack you can still be plagued by the rumblings etc of the digestive process.

    If you can drop off regardless then yes, makes no physical difference.

    It doesn't matter what time you eat, whatsoever.
