If you want to lose some weight, that eating before bed should be excluded from your eating habits. If you got fueled before going to bed, than at night your blood will be full of insulin, that is involved in fat production processes.

But don’t mix up the slight feeling of hunger and starvation. You may eat couple of hours before goin to bed, but your food must be light. Eating 3 or 4 hours before bedtime you will give your body enough time to burn calories and empty gastrointestinal tract from the food But if you will eat a good big sandwich just before falling asleep, guess what happen? Yes, you’ll get up at morning with a stomach still full of this sandwich, because night is the time when metabolism slows down and you body rests. So at morning it is 99% that you’ll skip breakfast because you’re not hungry. But skipping your breakfast catches you in the trap of late eating that is bad for any kind of diet based on metabolism processes. As you see, eating before bed can seriously affect your eating habits all in all.
