I'm going to disagree. Going to bed with food in your stomach is a bad idea, as the body cannot digest it properly. It doesn't matter if you're eating carbs, proteins, sugars, or whatever.

J Pold, I would suggest not eating past 8 p.m. Consume water, and maybe a small protein drink or a small piece of fruit, but definitely don't have food sitting in your stomach burning off improperly while you sleep. That's how people get fat.

Oh yes, and this is a big one - cut drinking out of your life entirely. No good comes from it, especially on a weight-loss program.
