eating a lot at night?
im not fat and really dont NEED to lose weight, but i would like to maybe lose 3-5 pounds of excess fat even though i look good for the most part. i workout about 5 days a week including strength training and cardio. i dont have a whole lot of time to eat throughout the day because im pretty busy most of the time. i usually only eat about 1000 calories and then come around around 8 or 9 and usually eat about 200 calorie dinner and then i usually get cravinggss and indulge in chocolate about 300 calories worth. so total im eating about 1500 calories but wil this make me fat? indulging in choclate every night?? even though i dont eat a whole lot during the day?? or will i maintain weight or lose weight because i am working out?

I believe that the 1000 calorie diet isnt healthy anyway. You are going to starve your body. When you work out as much as you do, you need to at least be on a 1200 calorie diet. Maybe that is why you feel hungry at night. Make sure they are healthy calories though. Its ok to indulge a little here and there. It really makes more since to be on a 1400 calorie diet. Dont worry so much about getting fat, concentrate on being healthy and fit. If you work out and eat right, you will stay slim. The night time is the worst time to be eating. That is when your body is resting and your metabalism slows down.

it can in ways, because it isn't healthy calories. You are indulging because you arent getting enough calories during the day. breakfast and lunch should be your biggest meals. Bring healthy snacks to work that dont need refridgeration, like fruits or nuts. Fruit will get you natural sugar, but it's low in calories. Load up your diet with fruits and vegetable, whole grain breads and nuts, and lean meat and fish. Instead of counting calories, count your servings of carbs a day, keep it 1 serving of carbs a meal and eat as much fruit and vegetables as you want. The nutritional benefits are high, and the calories are low. If you are burning more calories then you are taking in, you will lose weight. Aim for the 1500 calories, but adding more fruits and veggies, will able you to take in more food for the same amount of calories. You will feel full longer, and some of the cravings should stop.
