Evening Snacking

This is something I knew already, but it's probably worth sharing:  http://news.health.com/2012/12/03/want-to-lose-weight-here-is-the-1-habit-you-need-to-break/ [2]

If you want to lose weight, no snacking after 6PM.  If you're a night owl, no snacking after 8PM.  Eating at night changes your metabolism for the worst because it decreases fat oxidation.

This article says 6:00PM should be the cut off.  That seems so early to me.  I used to think it was 8PM for everyone, but not according to this article.

Do you snack in the evening?
