Eating after 7pm DOES NOT MAKE YOU FAT.
Y’ALL our body has no idea what time it is, our mind does. 👏🏼 The only reason why we think eating after 7pm makes us have more junk in the trunk than we’d like is because somewhere, someone wrote that on a magazine cover many years ago and we accepted that as truth 🤦🏼♀️
👉🏼 To anyone who thinks that eating late-night makes you have more junk in the trunk, here’s my response: (for example’s sake, we’re going to call her Alex 👩🏻)
Alex wants to lose weight. She’s feeling extra squishy around her thighs and stomach and is beyond ready to feel like $1M again.
But here’s the catch: Alex works the night shift as a nurse. She usually wakes up at 4pm, works from 7am-7pm, then comes home to workout, eat, shower, and go to bed 💤
❔ If we’re running by the rule that “carbs after 7pm = fat gain”, should Alex just never eat carbs?
Should she stuff her face full of oatmeal, bread, veggies and fruit before her shift starts so she won’t gain extra fat? 🤔
Even though it’s pretty much 10am by her body’s cycle at that point, that’s what she HAS to do….right? By this rule it is 😒
Yall, I think that sounds incredibly stupid.
‼️ If the rule doesn’t apply to EVERYONE, it shouldn’t apply to ANYONE ‼️
The truth here is that you can eat whatever, whenever, as long as your intake lines up with your goals.
👉🏼Fat loss = calorie output > calorie intake ….that’s literally it.
❌You can achieve that by missing meals, restricting to a no-carb diet, or by never eating after 7….
✅….OR you could eat whatever you want, whenever you want, and just be in a calorie deficit 🤪 which sounds better to you?
