Anonymous: At least three times a week. Sometimes more, it depends how often I work. Just face it, diet and weight work differently for different people. By stopping eating by a certain time, you're cramming all your food in a short time span, then starving your body for the rest of the day. Which may work for you, but doesn't necessarily work for all.
If you have an issue with the way I choose to eat, you can unfollow me then. You won’t be missed.
Anonymous: I've worked there for a year. Still at the same weight I was when I started. Because, you know, exercise and overall healthy eating without overdoing it.
Well I’d assume, and hope, that you don’t regularly eat desserts after 1am. Because 1) regularly eating after around 7pm, especially high-calorie foods, will hinder your weight-loss process and 2) consuming large amounts of sugar at night or in general isn’t exactly going to have pleasant long-term results. In any case, the whole ‘don’t eat after 7/9pm’ thing applies to people who regularly eat after that time, not the person who occasionally eats a dessert at 1am.
Anonymous: I work at a dessert restaurant, eat dessert after my shift (1am) and I'm a size 6-8, so... I think I'm doing ok, thanks.
Welp. You won’t be that size for long, that’s for sure.
Anonymous: Actually, studies have shown that eating carbohydrates at night will create an appetite suppressing effect that carries through the next day. As always, it isn't when/what you eat, it's how much.
The body works on a 24-hour cycle. After around 7pm, the body starts preparing for rest, and anything you eat after then isn’t going to be digested the right way. But you eat those carbs at midnight if you want to, and see how that works out for you.
