    There is no magic time to stop eating ... unless you've got a medical condition like gastric reflux perhaps.

    I usually have my last snack somewhere between 10 and 11 pm, then I go to bed somewhere between 12 and 1.

    I eat and stop eating whenever I feel like it, no set time.

    I stop around 7pm. It has nothing to do with that being some magical number or that I feel it makes any difference in my weight loss what so ever. I just try to close my diary around 7 and tell myself I am done for the day. All it really does is deter me from grazing around the kitchen eating random things..

    I have my last foods at 10 pm, practically in bed, before I go to sleep. I don't like to stop eating at dinner. Boring. My favorite time to eat is at home, where I can relax.

    Any time, worst thing is to try to sleep hungry

    I try not to eat at night cos this for me might lead to a binge and exceeding my calories for the day, trying to change my old habits but if very hungry I will have a yogurt with a few walnuts or something to tame those hunger pangs.

    I used to be pretty adamant about not eating after a specific time but it was not sustainable. Currently, I prefer my last meal to be simple (e.g., salad or fruit); I find that I sleep better and experience no digestion issues. I still like to have about a 60-90 minute gap between the last thing I ate and when I sleep.

    Right before I turn off the light to go to sleep, whenever that is.

    No truth. For me usually around 10pm.

    It has been foretold that if you eat past 18:38 your timezone, the fat you consumed travels through the walls of your gastrointestinal system and ends up in your hips if you're a lady or belly if you're male.
    Just sayin'... ;)

    I generally eat about 1/3 of my calories within an hour of going to sleep. Whatever works for YOU is the answer.

    I try not to eat after 8:00 pm and that's to prevent stomach issues.

    I try not to eat for 2-3 hours before I sleep, but sometimes I have to eat late. It happens.

    I like late-night snacking, so I eat up until bedtime. Then, sometimes I wake up a few hours later and head down for another snack. There has been nothing problematic about this so far, since I make room for it in my calories and hit most of my nutrient goals most of the time.

    Once I found out that I could eat after 8 and still lose weight, 10 pounds melted off. I always save 300 calories for a late night snack and sometimes I don't even get to eat them and then I have some extra banked calories! It's a win win win situation and I love it.
