Subject: WHY?!?!

Written By: BadAngel on 07/20/02 at 11:19 p.m.

Does junk food taste sooooo good at 1 a.m.?? Especially if you're drinking something?  Like, say, oh, I dunno, Wine or something?  

I think potato chips, nuts, and alcohol are suddenly in on a conspiracy to form a gang and crowd up on my butt!!  :o  I must not let them win!!

Good thing I don't drink very often, or they'd get me.  No, it's NOT paranoia if THEY really ARE watching you!!!

LOL

Too me, everything tastes good at 1 a.m. Too bad that late night snacking has to be a catalyst for weight gain. I heard that eating and sleeping increases the rate of body weight.

Well, I heard that, too.  You see, it so happens that I've lost 10 pounds and am working on the other 30 or so.  I'm not telling how many 'so's', so don't ask.  LOL

But the fact is, your body burns 55 calories an hour while you're sleeping.  **This average is based on a 150 pound woman.  If you weigh more, you burn more.**  And you burn 85 calories for just sitting for an hour.

Isn't that amazing?  I only hafta sit for fourteen more hours.... ;D

Sagnastian,

I didn't necessarily think you were addressing me, I was just making the unfortunate point that for me it doesn't matter when or where....

I know you were talking to Bad Angel, but I have to put my two cents were my mouth is.
You don't have to be drunk at 1:00 AM to be hungry at the same time. I wouldn't put a raw liver down my throat even if I was drunk. But anyone can get the late-night munchies.
BTW, the best place to go is Perkins'. Denny's service sucks after 1:00 AM.

OK,it's actually about 10.15 in the morning for me but I can get into this conversation because last night we watched a couple of video's,drank some wine and ate potato wedges,garlic bread,spring rolls,cheese sticks and onion rings!?! ( I cheated and bought one of those combo packs from the supermarket)

Don't you find you always eat loads more at that time in the morning too......

The simple act of not eating after 8:00 p.m. is supposed to help you lose weight.

That's like an impossibility for some of us late-niters. It's feasible if you go to bed shortly after 8:00 p.m. because you don't have the opportunity to think about food or walk into the kitchen.

I'm fortunate enough not to have a weight problem, thank goodness. I imagine that would suck.

I always cheat with this, I figure what they mean is your not supose to eat 2 hours before you go to bed. So, if I go to bed at 3 am that means I can snack until 1am.  :)

This may be considered blasphemy, but I sometimes drink and snack and then go straight to bed.  :o

Well being an entertainer it's really tough to eat before going onstage so I'm always starving after a show....and so I eat about midnight and then usually come home and jump on here and I dunno why but I can't seem to be on my puter and NOT snack.....

I have the same problem...sit and snack or smoke while I am online (yes!!  I am smoking again!!! :-/ )  so I am doing either one or the other....and normally adding a beer into the mix...never a good idea!!!

I've been 7 years smoke-free *pats himself on back* but it's still tough sometimes and I often think I eat so I won't smoke...and yeah...with the munchies while on here there's usually a beer or two or too many to go with it....

It does suck, but I'm doing something about it. I've lost 70 pounds since April. The greatest feeling in the world is finding an old pair of jeans you wore in high school that you grew out of and actually being able to fit in them again. ;D

That's some great news, Jessica. Keep up the good work!

Congratulations, from the slowly fattening mb, along with Stevebo and my sister who both agree.
