Am I gaining weight because I eat late at night?
This is a questions that has come up again and again lately as I'm striving to find a balance between my weight loss plan of choice and my lifestyle!
As the blur of life becomes more frenetic as we approach the end of the year, it seems my household eats later and later every night - does that have anything to do with my increasing girth?
Thankfully - a little bit of research later - it appears not!
It apparently doesn't really matter when you eat, only how many kilojoules you eat and burn (or not!) in a day. Whether you're eating at daybreak or at midnight, your body turns any extra kilojoules into fat regardless!
It is actually more beneficial eating a light snack - like cheese and crackers - before going to bed - it may help you sleep better.
