I eat every 2-4 hrs.. When should a person stop eating before bed.. And give up on getting your macros in?

    Yes, before bed. Eating lying down coukd lead to something going down the wrong tube.

    As for giving up, ideally never. Use the experience to get closer to your goal tomorrow.

    Your body doesn't care what time it is, unless you have a digestion issue like acid stomach that keeps you awake if you eat late. It has no actual affect on weight loss.Personally, I need a bedtime snack or I can't sleep. My hysband has to stop a couple hours before bed or he gets an upset stomachand can't sleep. It just all depends on your body.

    This. I've eaten late at night months and I'm still losing weight.

    I prefer not to eat in bed ... so ... before I actually get into bed.

    For me, that's usually at some point between 1 and 2 am.
