One I was little, I went to a super fancy school with a big focus on ballet. While I wasn’t interested in ballet I grew up surrounded by ballerinas, focused on their routines and rehearsals. My hips would never fly by the strict ballet teachers regardless of any other skills I might’ve possessed. I was never going to join my classmates on the stage of the local theater. I was 8 and I knew that my weight was a problem.

Over the years I was on a constant roller coaster of losing and gaining weight. However, one thing remained the same – any time I shopped for anything clothes, my thought was immediately going to “When I lose weight… “ As you can imagine this kind of mentality helped me support the fashion industry and contributed to a decent size bag of “The clothes I will wear when I lose weight” and a number of tight-fitting shirts and pants.

With a full-time job, a part-time business, a husband, and three children I wear lots of hats. I spend my days in an office and evenings on the roads getting kids to a variety of activities. With some practices ending after 8 pm, I might not even get to the kitchen until 8.30. Do I eat? Do I skip dinner and go to bed hungry? I don’t know about you but I am not a fan of skipping dinners. Yet, as I consume my late meal, someone annoying on the back of mind is asking, “should you be eating after 7?”

Recently though  I came across the book   by Joel Marion. With a big juicy burger on the cover, it immediately sparked my interest. I want to eat after 7 pm! I want to eat good food after 7 pm! Most importantly, I don’t want to feel guilty about eating my third of the day!! 

Joel Marion nearly starts the book with the words, “Eat at night—and you will not put on pounds. It’s time for a late-night eating rethink.” Do you need to hear more? The author references the study that took time over 10 years and followed 7,400 men and women and found that “subjects ate after 5 pm had no effect on their weight. In short, they did not put on any weight because they ate in the evening.”

: The Revolutionary Rule-Breaking Diet That Lets You Enjoy Huge Dinners, Desserts, and Indulgent Snacks—While Burning Fat Overnight by Joel Marion is now available to purchase.

We’ve been traditionally taught to avoid carbs, have an early dinner, and never eat before bed. But the fact is, the latest scientific research shows us this earlier model is not the most ideal 

I just started reading the book and I will share other exciting things I find there. However, you don’t need to wait for me. Learn more about the book and.
