I don't eat in my sleep, so I don't choke. Otherwise, a bulk of my calories are eaten in the evening because I prefer it this way.
Eat in a way that makes you feel best...your body functions 24/7, irregardless of when you eat.

Whenever I run out of calories or fall asleep, whichever comes first.0

I'm supposed to stop about 3 hours before lying down due to reflux, but I don't always.0 -

7pm - same here most days. I want that 16 hour window of fasting before I eat again.neekmichelle922 wrote: »I heard 7pm even tho I know it's all about calories burned vs calories taken in but it's not good to have food sitting in ur stomach alll night right ?

Eat a small dinner and a small snack, try to not eat a few hours before you go to sleep. Breakfast & Lunch should be your biggest meals because you will use all the nutrition and calories for energy to last throughout the day. If you eat a big dinner, you'll barely be moving after and then go to sleep.-1

I try not to eat for 3-4 hours before bed.
But sometimes I'm hungry, so I do.0 -
When I'm finished, varies.0

If I eat too large a meal close to bed time I sometimes have trouble sleeping. But I'll grab a string cheese or other small snack right before bed if I have calories left.0

Because it doesn't matter what time you eat, so long as you stay within your allotment.0 -

No. The human body does not use the calories and nutrients from food automatically. The majority of nutrient absorption occurs in the small intestine, and your food doesn't even reach that until 3-4 hours after you've eaten.0 -

It's a way to do it. Some people find it helpful to eat a big lunch to get them through the day. But it's not scientifically proven to help you lose weight or anything. I don't really see anything wrong with eating a big dinner either. All about calories in calories out.0 -

I'm supposed to stop about 3 hours before lying down due to reflux, but I don't always.
Then you lie in the "what makes you feel best" ;P
Obviously, if it makes you feel yucky to eat so close to bed, dont.
The misconception that gets tossed around is "if you eat before you sleep you won't burn it off and it'll get turned to fat"
At least, that's what I've seen to nauseum on the boards.
If that were even remotely true, I'd have never lost 53 lbs. Or gotten to where I am now. I enjoy my Talenti pints watching anime right before bed and I'm not about to stop

Those are my favorites too. I opted for the mediterranean mint for a little less cals. Not as good, but still yummy.0 -

Remember, as you savor each bite...it's all in the name of science! I've seen it but never tried it. May have to get a pint when I get paid again.
the sea salt caramel is like an orgasm in your mouth.0 -

Mmmmmm, mint. I bought the gelato pops in that flavor and I think it's going to be my new thing. Tonight, though, was a Skinny Cow sandwich because I wanted to be a little conservative with my calories today.0 -
To the OP: unless you have conditions like heartburn/acid reflux that affect you, it doesn't matter when you stop eating. Your body can't tell time.0
