Do you snack at night time before bed or eat in bed and read? When I was younger I did but now I do not.I wonder why in my older years I have not so much of an appetite..Im 30.Im not complaining I have lost some weight but I use to love to snack...Now not so much..

hi autunno!
normally, i don't snack late at night. we eat rather late, around 8pm, so snacking around 12 mn is just too soon. and that would mean a lot of complications just before going to sleep. so i would rather not.
however, now that i am pregnant, it is hard not to eat snacks late at night. well, i don't do it everyday. but sometimes, when i get to wake up in the middle of the night and can't go back to sleep because baby is moving around too much, it is mostly because she is hungry and wants me to grab a snack. once i have fulfilled my stomach's desire, then we can sleep peacefully. such is a funny thing when one is pregnant. and the would never let me sleep, eventhough i would really try because i don't want to get up. and most of all, i don't want to put on extra weight more than i am supposed to. but well, too late for that now. i have really packed on the pounds, hehe
if you're on a diet, a late night snack is not beneficial.
take care and God bless you!
happy mylotting! :D

I snack as often as possible. Most of the time I opt for healthy choices but sometimes I splurge a little on chocolate or ice cream.

I've noticed that happens. My parents don't eat all that much. i use to eat constantly, but now I can go 4 hours in the morning without eating, and I use to have to eat breakfast no matter what.I think as we get older our metabolism slows down, and we don't need to snack as much. Although I do like to snack in bed and read a book before I go to sleep
