hellllllllllo

well today i grilled chicken alfredo at cheddars for lunch, but i barely ate half of it.
and now im eating a turkey cheese sandwhich with wheat bread and a couple of hot cheetos.
i was wondering if it was okay to eat at night and not gain like 894573 pounds, haha not really but you catch my drift

Its 9 o clock and i usually go to bed around 1 or 2.
So yeah what do ya'll think?

Um... I guess it's okay?

I think it'd be better if you move around a bit more just so the food can digest easier/faster.
Also, (I forgot where I heard this) you should give your body around 4 hours or so to digest the food before going to bed, otherwise you're gonna gain some weight.

go ahead man. if you're like me, you can eat all day and it don't even matter. just burn it off the next day.

but for real though, it's ok to eat at night, especially if you're eating at 9pm and you go to sleep at 1-2 am. that's like 4 hours in between the meal and sleep.. not bad at all.

Doesn't your metabolism naturally slow down at night?

^Yes.

This was on the Tyra Banks show yesterday X]
She listed top myths and eating after 8PM was one of them.
The nutritionist/doctor said it was okay to eat at night, as long as you sleep an hour and a half+ after you eat, because again, of your metabolism slowing down.

NO! you're actually not supposed to eat 3-4 hours before you sleep. That is how I developed really bad acid reflux because for an entire semester at school I ate really late at night around 3-4ish
