    Meal timing is irrelevant. Given my working hours and other commitments, I'd go to bed without dinner 3/4 nights a week if I didn't eat after 8pm.

    If it's after 10pm I'll have a cup of hot tea. If it's after 8ish I usually cut up an apple or cucumber and put lime, salt and hot sauce on it.

    Hot tea for me. I can't eat for a couple hours before bed unless I want horrible reflux :(

    If I eat after 8:30-9pm, it will only be something like a stick of string cheese or some fruit. I have been terrible about eating way too late at night in the past, and it is my biggest trigger for overeating so I have to proceed with caution and double up on the water...lol.

    I've been trying to avoid eating after 9. When I snack during night hours, I can't stop.

    I always save room for a sweet snack a couple of hours after dinner. It might be 300 calories worth of ice cream or just a 60 calorie Outshine bar, depending on what else I ate that day. But knowing I have that treat to look forward to makes me very happy.

    Me too. Just started recently. Super annoying, but saving me hundreds of calories a day.

    I'll usually just have water or i'll distract myself from getting hungry. Now...after 30 days...it's not so bad.

    I eat whenever I can. Always hungry before bed so I'll have something then as well.

    Today is a maintenance day. I plan on having a few Hostess hot cocoa donuts.

    For the second fast day tomorrow, I plan on having a little homemade Skyr and sugar free jello.

    I went to Taco Bell last night at 10pm.

    2 black bean burritos and a caramel empanada. Woke up this morning and took a shot of ACV. All systems go baby.

    I thought for sure there would've been a snarky answer by now

    I budget about 300 calories for the Snack category, and I plan to have all my snacks between dinner and bedtime.

    Today my snacks are going to be 100 calories of prunes, less than 100 calories of a peach, and 130 calories of fruit cake. I do this because I learned that I like to eat in the evenings, so I plan to be able to.

    I don't limit my eating times, no need to unless eating late keeps you awake/gives you indigestion.

    For snacks, last night I had some smoked gouda cheese wrapped in canadian bacon and pistachios. It was so yummy.

    Boiled eggs, greek yogurt, nuts, cheese/meat, apple/peanut butter, fruit, veggies/hummus, protein shakes are my snack go to's

    I've learned that for someone reason I forget what portion control is after supper and so I just have a late supper so I don't feel inclined to stuff my face at night
