Eating before bed

When everyone (Oprah, for example) started telling us all not to eat at night, it was really for behavioral reasons. People who ate a reasonable, healthy diet all day long sat in front of the t.v. for an hour or two at night and consumed hundreds or thousands of calories without realizing it by mindlessly snacking on chips or ice cream or whatever.

Therefore, the latest diet advice several years ago became, "Don't eat at night."

I like a small snack before bed. It helps me sleep better and longer. If I go to bed hungry, I wake up in the middle of the night starved. If I eat too much before bed, I'm uncomfortable and can't sleep or have weird dreams.

I say do whatever makes you feel the best and sleep the best.

I usually have some sort of snack late at night..maybe a cup of watermelon, or a small portion of unsweetened applesauce or laughing cow cheese...nothing big but i do snack at night...lot better than what i used to snack on at night lol

Mrs was singing, "You can eat crackers in my bed anytime".
