Ive been trying to stop eating by 6, 7 at the latest. It works but there's a big risk of falling off the wagon around midnight if you push your luck. But I've noticed even if you have a big bowl of pasta for lunch, if you have a light, early supper you're almost guaranteed to drop a pound, probably two and occasionally even three overnight.
Anyway, would love to hear anyone's experience with front loading their day eating-wise. Thanks!

Anna61, would love to hear more about how you - as our American friends like to say - "transitioned" to eating less as the day progressed, what food you found sustained you etc,,. I find that a fairly big lunch is essential - or i buckle around 11 pm - the key word for me is realistic. Salad for lunch, say, will not sustain me across a food-free evening/night but a bowl of brown pasta might...
I go the opposite route, in fact. I ensure I eat a good portion of protein, either a big bowl of Greek yogurt or pot of cottage cheese, about half an hour before bedtime. this causes a spike in amino levels, raising resting energy expenditure, thus increasing overnight fatburn. It also raises ATP levels, so aiding recovery and increasing energy levels when I wake up in the morning. I always do fasted cardio in the mornings so increased energy levels are a real boon.
