Top 10 Weight Loss Myths Part 4 of 10
Weight Loss Myths just blew me away when I discovered this little jewel of knowledge and great relief. 4. Eating foods late at night is more likely to pack on the pounds.
This is a common myth that is believed by many. The truth is that if you consume more calories on a daily basis then your body requires, the excess will be stored as fat. The opposite is also the case — if you take in fewer calories than you burn then you will shed pounds. For this reason, the time of day you eat does not really matter so much as how much you eat and how much you burn off through physical activity.
According to health experts, you should never go to bed hungry, as this will prevent you from having a sound sleep. You are fasting while you sleep after all. That is what breakfast the following morning- break the fast- is all about.
Eating something small and light, such as a few crackers and some cheese can actually contribute to a more restful night’s sleep. Now you know that sending your young one to bed hungery is not necesary when avoiding childhood obesity!
