What time do you guys cut off the eating for the night? Or how many hours before going to bed, is the better question.

    Right before I go to bed which is usually right around 12:30am-1am.

    I don't go by time, I go by total consumed. But if I'm hungry, I'm gonna eat.

    I don't. If I'm hungry at 11pm and have calories left you'd better believe I'm going to use them.

    I try to stop eating at least an hour before bed, but that's for my reflux, not weight loss.

    I work the night shift 7p - 7a. So, my cut-off is around 9am!

    I don't get home most nights right now till after 7. Cooking and eating comes after that, and in the winter it's later some nights so I can't even begin to give anyone a time that I cut off eating.

    I don't, if I have calories and I'm hungry I eat them. I track from the time I wake up in the morning til the time I go to bed at night.

    I go to bed regularly at 10:00PM Sunday-Thursday and I have my last snack no later than 8:00PM. I think the quality of sleep is as important as what and when I eat!

    I ate my dinner about 40min ago (9:30p-ish). The time of meals doesn't matter

    On a work night, I dont get home till 6ish. Then 2 work nights a week I go to the gym. So I don't actually eat dinner sometimes till almost 9. I eat then go to bed a bout an hour or so later.

    I pretty much try to cut it off at about an hour before bedtime so I am not going to bed on a totally full tummy. But if I am hungry I will eat, or if I am below my cals.

    I Work nights... and sometimes when I get home I am too tired to snack... I sometimes wake up in the middle of my sleep and have a snack (something small and protieny)

    I don't cut off the calories, if I have some left over and I am hungry I eat. I always add the extra even though I already completed my diary for the day.

    I stop eating when my calories are all used up. I don't have a problem eating right before bed. Doesn't bother me at all.

    I get up at 10am and am up til 2am. I like to eat anywhere from 6pm to 9pm. If I am not too lazy. For some reason, I like to eat right at the beginning of a show or sporting event. I am not sure why that is. I don't own a microwave by choice, so any food I make is cooked, which takes effort and time.

    I don't get hungry at night, for some reason. For me, it's a big breakfast, medium lunch, and small dinner. Dinner's anywhere between 5:30 and 7:00, but I don't have any strict 'I will not eat after X-pm' rule. I like to sleep early and wake up early :)

    Until recently, I was just eating right before I went to bed. Now I cut-off my eating before 8pm (early, I know).

    I get home from work at around 10:30pm and I have a bad habit of snacking on high-calorie foods after work.

    I think it's okay to go to bed a little hungry

    But right now...I'm snacking on pickles lol

    I have no cut off time and my sleep schedule is irregular, so I might have my last bite hours before to right before I fall asleep. Hasn't affected my weight loss as far as I can tell.

    If I'm hungry, I'll eat no matter what time it is. Obviously not a full meal but a good snack.

    I typically goto bed at around 5 AM so I guess around that time?

    I have my diary set up in 3 hour chunks of time rather than by meals and snacks. If I'm hungry or haven't reached my goal for the day, I eat, but I like to have a little time before actual sleep time. Midnight is the latest though

    I like to have a yummy milk drink when I go to bed. I find that if I go to bed full and satisfied, then I don't get up starving in the middle of the night or the next morning.

    I don't eat after 4-5pm. If I HAVE to eat, it will be an apple or celery/carrot sticks.
