    I don't think it makes a difference - I do it to help keep me from binge eating at night.

    The reason I like to stop eating 3-4 hours before bedtime is because I like my food to be digested before I sleep.
    I sleep better and just feel better.
    I wake up with more energy...
    I have less "crazy" dreams.
    I don't know that there is any scientific evidence to back up the claims but this works for me so I continue on with it.
    I think whatever works for YOU is what you should do :)

    I hear this from time to time but I don't get it. Why would anyone NOT want crazy dreams? I love crazy dreams! It's like a free David Lynch movie in your head!

    I thought it was you can't be fed after midnight.
