Don't eat at all. You'll never gain weight.Don't eat after 6 pm. You will lose more weight.
Don't eat after 5 pm. You will lose even more weight.
Don't eat after 4 pm. Can you imagine the weight you will lose?
Don't eat after 3 pm. It's all coming off now.
if you consume less than you use, youll lose weight, it does NOT matter time of day. even before sleep.
ill use an earlier example...
say you burn 2500 calories a day. if you consume 1600 before 7 and 400 more after you WILL lose the SAME (for all intensive purposes) amount of WEIGHT. I did not talk about muscle/fat amounts, but the weight loss will be pretty much the same.
now there are studies that show that eating 6 meals as opposed to 2 will cause more fat loss compared to muscle, and that also aids the eating after 7 case. Unless you plans on eating 6 separate times before 7pm, which seems like it would end up as a continuous snack.
pure weight loss ONLY depends on calories in vs out. (unless you get in a swordfight or something, then other circumstances come into play )
so eating more times(but smaller quantites per time) is better than eating a couple huge meals(total calories being the same)? ...is this kind of like high intensity cardio bursts are better then a long low intensity cardio?...
and my next question ..which i think goes along with OP is that if u ate 400 calories all day then say 1100 after 7 and went to bed shortly after....your body would treat this the same as if u ate 5 -500 calorie meals that day...and nothing after 7?im thinking no but im really not smart about this stuff...im lifting weights several times a week ...just trying to make life easier on myself and not sabotage my own results

My sister is adamant not eating after 5 works for her but my friend who lived in Spain for 10 years eats at 11 p.m. and she's in great shape. I guess it depend on what else you do throughout the day.
