late night eating?

Question

i dont eat much in the day time but around 2am im really hungry and i always have a soft boiled egg and 2 pieces of toast and then i go back to bed will this make me put on weight? because im trying to lose a few pounds

Answer 1

if you are trying to lose weight you need to have a regular eating schedule randomly eating at 2 in the morning isn't very healthy and since you're going back to bed you aren't digesting the food in a healthy manner... eat healthy and in the day exercise and you will lose the weight :)

Answer 2

you want to get your metabolism going in the morning, that sets the pace for the day. eat the egg & toast in the morning & small frequent meals (snacks) throughout the day. eating late at night before bed will pack on the pounds since your body slows down, including your metabolism. hope this helps, good luck

Answer 3

I don't think that would put any weight on you but if you ate like cookies or other stuff it would because you are eating and going back to bed, what you eat will turn to fat. Best to eat more during the day that way you can work it off and it doesn't have time to sit and turn to fat.

Answer 4

It will add to the calories, try eating a little bit alot! even if your not hungry. That way your body is always working on digesting.
Also eat high protein low carbs, and exercise regularly.

Answer 5

If you eat and go to bed that's really bad, your food needs to digest, You wont lose much weight but gain

Answer 7

its tough to answer but i dont think so because when you eat at night you aren't exercising to put that weight off. but your not eating during the day so im not too sure

Answer 8

Not so much as if you eat a whole meal then go straight to sleep. Try not to do it every night.

Answer 10

it's hard to answer this question properly, without knowing how active your lifestyle is.

in general, if you use more energy than you consume [in simple forms (sugars and proteins)] you will lose weight
