LATE NIGHT SNACKING!

If you are trying to lose weight, then avoiding "heavy" late night snacking is a must. Eating a heavy meal prior to bed time can not only make you gain weight, but it may also cause you to have sleep problems. Our bodies naturally take time to burn off food. If a person eats a "heavy" high calorie meal at 10:00 p.m., their bodies have slowed down and will not burn off the extra calories as quickly. If you are hungry and you would like to snack, try something light such as fruit. Even if you have the urge to get up in the middle of the night, be sure to have nutritious foods to eat. Sometimes, it may not be the late night snacking, but the calorie intake. By making healthy changes such as what and when you choose to eat,  this can allow you to digest your food properly and maintain a healthy weight, while helping you to sleep better throughout the night. Of course, every researcher has different studies on the subject. Try it for a few weeks and see if it makes the difference for you!
