Episode 136: Fix Your Night Time Eating
from Bite Me Nutrition · host Jonathan Steedman, APD
In this episode, I explain why overeating after dinner is rarely a nighttime problem. Most of the time, it’s the result of under-eating earlier in the day. I walk through why trying to rely on willpower at night almost never works and how a better daytime eating structure can make evenings feel dramatically easier.I also cover the importance of building balanced breakfasts and lunches, knowing when to add an afternoon snack, and avoiding the trap of compensating for a big night of eating by restricting the next day. Finally, I explain how the labels we give ourselves, like “I have no willpower” or “I can’t stop eating at night,” can keep the cycle going and what to do instead.Time Stamps:00:00 — Why nighttime eating isn't the real problem02:20 — The daytime eating pattern that sets you up for success05:00 — The mental trap of labeling yourself06:15 — Why restricting the next day makes things worseClick me for show notes!PS.
