Why is the weight loss at a stand still?

Balanced breakfast?

CheckMid-morning snack?

CheckHealthy lunch with your co-workers?

CheckPassing up your friend's homemade cookies?

CheckComing home in the evening and going on a feeding frenzy?

CHECK!!Does this sound like the bulk of your days?

You're in control, everything is going fine - until you come home starving at night and eat a large dinner, say yes to dessert (and seconds) and finish off a bag of chips before bed. What gives?

From a metabolic standpoint, there is really no reason not to eat food in the evening.

A calorie is a calorie regardless of when it is consumed.

A morning calorie is metabolized in basically the same way as an evening calorie.

However, eating in the evening is a problem for many, not because of the way food is metabolized, but because of the quantity of food that is often eaten.

Skipping meals and becoming overly hungry by evening can lead to nighttime binge eating.

Recent studies revealed that when people ate three meals a day only 13% binged.

When people skipped breakfast, 24% binged and when people skipped breakfast and lunch, 60% binged.

In general, people who spread their meals throughout the day seem to be better able to control their eating.

They are less likely to feel hungry and less likely to overeat. So by eating breakfast, lunch, and dinner and planning snacks in between, you can help yourself lose weight as well as maintain better control of your eating throughout the day and night.
