Heavy meals before bed at night?

For my husband and I this is always the issue. Since he works swing shift and gets home at 11:30 p.m most nights he ends up cooking a meal of some sort as well. Many times we try and keep it smaller and simple, but from time to time we do something bigger and end up having it play havoc with trying to sleep later for sure.

NOt good to eat heavy at night.

Usually I won't feel hungry after dinner at night. But if I drink a cup of coffee, I may feel hungry ater that.

It's a very bad idea to eat heavy food before going to sleep, usually you cannot sleep at all.

I wouldn't be able to sleep if I ate heavy at night.

I don't often eat before bed, just very occasionally and it would only be a snack.

That happens to me a lot because usually I stay up late at night because of Insomnia. But I know that I shouldn't, it can cause weight gain, heartburn and other issues.

It happens to me sometimes. I am trying to avoid it, eating heavy at night, for me, it is not good with regards to indigestion.

Yes I have felt it, somedays I come home late and dinner is ready at around midnight. Usually I eat something light otherwise I might not be able to sleep!

Sometimes I don't sleep until I eat in the middle of the night. It feels good then by not when I wake up in the morning. That however doesn't happen when I have a nice meal few hours before bedtime.

It is 8:45 here and I am just now fiing us supper. Fish and rice.

I have read in one magazine or online I think that heavy meals before bed is bad for our sleeping, it should be controlled meals so we don't have nightmare

Happens to me sometimes too, specially when i am awake till late night and chocolates come as rescue

Yes it often becomes. I use some light after meals before bed time.

Never have heavy meal just before going to bed. Atleast sleep after 2-3 hours after your last meal.Avoid carbs at night as they do not get burned easily and turn to fats.
