Title: When you diet, at what time during the day do you stop eating?
Post by: Deicide on June 11, 2008, 06:31:09 AM
I usually stop at 18:00, sometimes 19:00 and sometimes even 17:00...if I eat any later than that I can't drop weight...

How about you?

I've been dieting a bit recently myself.  I try to abide by the rule of thumb to eat little or no carbs after around 5 pm.  To get some protein calories, and also to avoid waking up famished the next morning, I'll eat 2-3 cups of cottage cheese (or some other high protein, very low- or no-carb food like a pound of ground turkey) a couple of hours before going to bed.

I have a meal about 30 mins before i go to bed. Never bothers me going to bed right after a meal.

Im curious Deicide, what time do you go to bed. The reason i ask is that if you stop eating at 6, then lets say go to bed at 9, then sleep for 7 hrs or so, thats at least 10 hrs without food. That means you will be in a catabolic state for many hours, which is especially bad when cutting.

Well before I go to bed I usually take a few amino tabs, BCCAs and L-Glutamine, I usually go to bed at 12 or 1.

For some reason if I eat late, despite deficit I can't drop weight; overall shitty genetics, for building muscle and losing fat.

Anyway my last meal always has casein in it so...8 hours of amino flow...

I just do not see how someone can tell their body has changed overnight.  Nobody has that big of effects unless it is lasix.

If you are awake and on a meal schedule you should be eating ..............doesn`t matter what time or if dieting,just gotta` know which food to ingest.

If you normally go to bed at 9:30 PM and one day you find yourself up to 1 AM,you should still eat as if you were on your normal meal plan.

No, I need a period of fasting to drop fat, otherwise it doesn't work.

so the low carb did nothing for you deicide?  I have found when going back on a low carb it takes longer to lose it than the first time.

i agree with wes everybody is different though so you never know, even if i stay up till 3am i still eat i do however cut out carbs or severly limit carbs on the last meal of the day. How many days a week do you do your cardio and for how long?

I don't care for the clock.
5 days is low carb/high fat.
1-2 days medium carb/medium fat.
Last meal for me is usually at around 2 am.
