The other day I was watching a talk show and they started talking about how if you eat a big meal like dinner after 4 hours prior to going to bed, that it results in more rapid weight gain and hinders weight loss! I had never heard that before!
I didn't know the exact timing like that, but it's believable and I know it's harder for the body to use the energy when you eat late.
I suppose it makes sense because your not burning as much calories when laying in bed then you would be otherwise right?
Exactly, and since they don't burn the body turns it into fat to burn later or something like that I think.
