Is it true you shouldn’t eat after 6 PM?

Nope β€” that’s a myth πŸ™‚ What matters more is what and how much you eat over the whole day, not a β€œmagic” clock time. If you go to bed at 11:30 PM, dinner at 7–8 PM is totally fine.

A simple, real-life approach:

  • Aim to eat 2–3 hours before bedtime so you sleep comfortably.
  • Dinner idea: protein + veggies + a bit of slow carbs (chicken/fish/eggs/tofu + salad/veg + rice/buckwheat/potatoes).
  • If you’re genuinely hungry late β€” go for a light snack: yogurt/kefir, cottage cheese, a banana, a small handful of nuts (not the whole bag πŸ˜„).

How to use our app πŸ“±:

  • Log your dinner/snack in the food diary β€” the app counts calories and macros, so you can see if evenings are where you overdo it.
  • Check your last meal time and try the β€œ2–3 hours before bed” rule for 1–2 weeks β€” it often solves the problem.

If you tell me what time you usually go to sleep, I can suggest your best dinner window πŸ˜‰
