Does the time you eat affect weightloss?

People will say no, but I did an experiment because I eat the same exact thing every day and I tried eating it all before bed and I kept gaining vs spacing it out and eating mostly in the morning. Yes everything was measured and weighed, the same workouts, everything (this isn't my first rodeo, I've lost 100 pounds 4 times, I know what works and what doesn't for me).
So take everyone's answers with a grain of salt.0 -

The 'eating late at night causes weight gain' is a massive myth.
The only ounce of truth to it is that eating later at night means you're more likely to make unhealthy choices. It does not matter when you consume your calories. If you eat at 2am and go to bed straight after, the body won't automatically store the food as some people claim.0 -

I don't know. Im sure there are some boxers up there. There is a difference between doing 100 revolution in 30 sec and doing 200 in sec. The 200 in 60 sec takes a combo on strength and endurance. I did not jump rope for endurance I do Tabata HIIT 20 sec hard 10 sec complete stop. I stop when I cannot stay with a certain number on the first set.
It's like...I can't even...wut?

I follow this girl on Instagram. @stephie_squats
She doesn't eat "clean" and she put a Pic of this bedtime snack (like she does often) of cheesey bread.
I think she's doing something right.

Some of my friends swear by skipping dinner makes them lose weight. My observation is that they weigh themselves every morning, so going to bed with empty stomach somehow encourages a good reading on the scale next morning...
Skipping dinner is a type of IF so all in all, since they cut down the total calories they end up losing weight eventually...So I guess that's part of the reason why so many believe in dinner myth? I am not sure.0 -

I actually know stephie in real life and can confirm that her way of thinking is real and applied just as she preaches. We train at the same gym and have spent some time discussing nutrition. Very smart individual and incredibly strong.
That's awesome! I love following her on insta!0 -

That's awesome! I have something of the same philosophy, as can be seen by the frequency of KFC Double Down and Taco Bell in my diary. Food is made to be enjoyed. Thoroughly.0 -

You can't believe someone working out for 8 years can actually do something in the fitness department.0 -

Its true. It doesnt matter a jot WHEN you eat your calories. Just how much. I chose to skip breakfast and lunch, have a huge dinner, and a 400 cal bedtime snack.
Worked for me0 -

The video was suppose to show exactly what I said which is I can jump rope. You were saying how its so ridiculous that there no way I weighting 225 can be in better shape than you and jump rope on a professional boxer level so you claimed. Imagine where I will be when the weight is gone. As far my outlandish claims I make, I clearly found them somewhere that has worked for people in the past. In addiction, eating lifestyle is actually common sense which I never had back then. And when pressed for information I would use T nation which no one would read and for the people who do thank me in a message for helping them realize there problem.0

Meal timing and meal frequency are going to have a marginal impact on body fat loss. Nothing will compensate for getting your calories right and working out.0

No I didn't claim I was in better shape than you because you weigh 225 lbs. I would never make claims using someone's weight against them, since I was once almost 220 lbs myself. However, since you want to go there, I will say, Yes I am in better shape than you. I'm leaner, more defined and stronger than you while weighing 70 lbs less than you. All 4 of my big lifts are higher than yours. And in my honest opinion I just generally think I am more awesome than you. I'm pretty modest wouldn't you say? Actually, that's one trait I do lack. I'm pretty arrogant and vain as an individual but I don't throw it in people's faces. This is honestly the first time I've done that, and done it online, but I decided to because you were making a claim I never made to play the victim.
As far as eating style being common sense, it's not, because common sense isn't so common. Your T Nation articles I have read. And I've read plenty of other ones from then before you came along on MFP and I still stand by the fact that their are tons of better reference materials out there than that site. You mentioned, again, that people thank you for the articles you share with them from T Nation, I'm still not impressed. And as I've stated in the past, you can keep those individuals who follow your lead. I prefer to deal with rational, realistic thinkers.
And thats cool. I don't even know why this argument is still going on. I do things that other people do in the past that work. No matter how wrong they look or science tries to disprove. You do the same. Now I am always up for a friendly competition. I love competing and feel that is better motivation for me. What four big lifts are you referring too Flat Bench, Back Squat, Deadlift, and ???? overhead press I will guess?0 -

No! Your body does not know if it is 5 am or 5 pm.0

Yes. I find that when I eat all the time I gain weight. But when I only eat some of the time I don't gain, and sometimes even lose, weight...0
