When do you eat?

    My New Years Resolution is to get on top of bad eating habits and so I've been keeping an eye on when and what I eat. I was discussing this with my friend and our meal times are mismatched by hours!
    I thought it would be interesting to see when others eat too and if there is something I can learn from!

    Breakfast 7.10-7.15
    Lunch 12.30
    Dinner 5.45/6 or whenever I come in from work!
    Supper 8.00 just something small but I'd be starved if I didn't!

    So, what about you?

    It's actually a myth that when you eat affects your weight - basically, once you have a calorie balance/deficiency per 24-hour period, you won't gain weight. When you consume those calories makes no difference whatsoever.

    Having said that - spacing your meals out properly throughout the day will make it easier for you to control your hunger, making you less likely to binge/overeat in general. So there can be a knock-on effect. But you could eat your dinner at 11pm every night and not put on weight, as long as you're not overeating in general.

    For what it's worth - I don't eat breakfast, would have lunch around 1.30pm and then would have dinner around 8pm.
