It keeps me from guessing whether fluctuations are from water weight, fat gain, etc. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-stop-eating-completely-after-_-oclock#post-1505382 Wed, 19 Mar 2014 17:42:54 +0000 Smurfette 1505382@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@littlebug: I agree!</p> <p>Nope! I eat if I am hungry. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-stop-eating-completely-after-_-oclock#post-1505381 Wed, 19 Mar 2014 17:41:53 +0000 Running Elley 1505381@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I try not to eat after dinner. And if I do have dessert after dinner I make sure we have it RIGHT after the kids go to bed...so like 8? I don't like the way that I wake up feeling when I eat late. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-stop-eating-completely-after-_-oclock#post-1505376 Wed, 19 Mar 2014 17:39:47 +0000 blackbird 1505376@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No. Sometimes I have a protein shake. Makes me not hungry, only 130 calories. Sometimes we eat at 5, so getting hungry at 10 happens! It's not when you eat, it's what you eat, for the most part </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-stop-eating-completely-after-_-oclock#post-1505317 Wed, 19 Mar 2014 17:08:50 +0000 Synchronicity 1505317@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope. I generally don't start eating until 1 or 2pm, so if I stopped myself from eating at night I'd probably be hangry more often than not. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-stop-eating-completely-after-_-oclock#post-1505308 Wed, 19 Mar 2014 17:04:23 +0000 Rainbow Sprinkles 1505308@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope. I had entire bag of popcorn at midnight last night. </p> <p>I often forget to eat throughout the day though because I am so incredibly busy, so nighttime is the only time I can focus in myself, eat, read, etc. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-stop-eating-completely-after-_-oclock#post-1505304 Wed, 19 Mar 2014 17:03:05 +0000 artsyfartsy 1505304@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Pre-baby we didn't eat after 6pm. It worked well! Now that I'm nursing I need to have calories often. I don't let myself get hungry. Even if it's 2am. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-stop-eating-completely-after-_-oclock#post-1505302 Wed, 19 Mar 2014 16:59:24 +0000 Mrs. High Heels 1505302@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No, I eat when I'm hungry... but if it's really late like right before bed I'll keep it light. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-stop-eating-completely-after-_-oclock#post-1505260 Wed, 19 Mar 2014 16:39:52 +0000 TemperanceBrennan 1505260@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I stop eating after dinner and don't allow myself to snack afterwards. We usually eat around 8, but it can be much earlier or even as late as 9:30. </p> <p>I know a lot of people suggest not weighing yourself daily, but I do and it really helps me understand what is going on. I'm actively trying to lose weight - so once I'm at my goal I'll stop weighing daily. My scale also measures fat pounds, water percentage, bone percentage, and BMI so I can see how one component is affecting the other. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-stop-eating-completely-after-_-oclock#post-1505219 Wed, 19 Mar 2014 16:24:22 +0000 LindsayInNY 1505219@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No. We eat dinner around 8:30-9 most nights so it is what it is! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-stop-eating-completely-after-_-oclock#post-1505024 Wed, 19 Mar 2014 15:15:23 +0000 IRunForFun 1505024@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No. I eat when I'm hungry. Sometimes I need to eat before bed because I can't sleep if I feel hungry. It hasn't seemed to have any negative affect so far... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-stop-eating-completely-after-_-oclock#post-1505013 Wed, 19 Mar 2014 15:11:10 +0000 snowjewelz 1505013@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I will only retrain myself if it's within half hour of when I'm going to sleep, so usually by 10:30pm I won't eat even if I'm hungry. </p> <p>We eat dinner around 6pm so it's really hard not to eat anything later! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-stop-eating-completely-after-_-oclock#post-1505011 Wed, 19 Mar 2014 15:10:44 +0000 MrsH 1505011@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Not really, although I'm not much of a late night snacker. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-stop-eating-completely-after-_-oclock#post-1505003 Wed, 19 Mar 2014 15:08:22 +0000 rachiecakes 1505003@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope, I only eat when I'm hungry. </p> <p>I used to force myself to eat in the morning "most important meal of the day" and it just made me feel nauseous and stuffed.<br /> I only eat when I'm hungry and stop eating when I'm full. That, with daily exercise and water, has been very good for me. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-stop-eating-completely-after-_-oclock#post-1505001 Wed, 19 Mar 2014 15:07:51 +0000 littlebug 1505001@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>9pm is our cutoff. That does not include beer, though. :wink: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-stop-eating-completely-after-_-oclock#post-1505000 Wed, 19 Mar 2014 15:07:48 +0000 Greentea 1505000@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No way! At this point I need the energy whenever I need it. Lo isn't a sleeper :/ </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-stop-eating-completely-after-_-oclock#post-1504993 Wed, 19 Mar 2014 15:05:42 +0000 mrbee 1504993@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've been working after the kids go to bed, which always leaves me hungry... so I've been eating an extra meal around midnight and then going to bed around 1 or 2 am. What the heck am I thinking?!</p> <p>So last night, I restarted an old policy: no food whatsoever after 8 pm. I was so happy with the new policy and weighed myself in the morning, and I had gained four pounds since my last weigh-in. Haha sometimes I hate the scale. I think I'm putting on some muscle from working out though... my clothes are a bit looser lately. Hopefully that continues with no midnight snacks!</p> <p>Do you stop eating completely after ___ o'clock? </p>
