Eating at night

When should I stop eating at night? Sometimes I get hungry before going to bed or I go to bed and realize I'm hungry and can't sleep, and I KNOW that eating late is bad! It's 10.40 pm here now and I'm hungry... :D

Hi Silve,


South Beach Diet doesn't have a rule about when to cut off eating for the day.

Thank you Maggie! *running off to get some yoghurt with a huge sigh of relief* ;)

Silve,


I make a point to eat my PB yogurt about an hour to two hours before bed.

Hi Silve:

I found an article on ivillage years ago that said that eating after 9 P.M.-6A.M. was a NONO and I try not to eat after 7PM. Heres the web site for you to read. Its called "Diet by the Clock" http://diet.ivillage.com/issues/ichoices/0,,hf3x,00.html

Hope this helps Hugs Maryann

Thanks for the link! Sounds right, but I think it would be difficult for me to put into practice - my day starts at 5.30 and I hardly ever go to sleep before 12.30, I get about 5-6 hours of sleep every night and if I'm hungry I just can't fall asleep! I'll try making sure I have a good meal in the evening and have a yoghurt around 10 and see if that helps :)

I agree with our CL that it's ok to eat when you're hungry.
