Healthy Habit Challenge-Stop Eating At Night---YIKES!

This challenge is going to be a toughy--at least for me!  I challenge you to stop eating at least 12 hours before your typical breakfast time.  In other words, cut out the night time eating!
According to Simple Steps, our bodies digestive and circulatory systems need at least 12 hours of rest daily.    Research shows that when you stop eating at night, you will wake up feeling less bloated (and avoid a junk food hangover). What better way to start the day, right?

I am not one for over deprivation, actually I don't like depriving myself at all, so if you are a big night time snack you may want to take this in steps and gradually push back your over night "fast".  Perhaps start at 8pm, than 7:30, than 7, then nothing after dinner.  Be sure skip breakfast-it will now be just as intended (breaking the fast) and even more vital to healthy lifestyle.

Here's a great tip: Whatever you are craving at night, allow yourself to have it the next morning, you won't feel deprived and you'll have the whole day to burn it off.  More than likely you won't even crave it anymore in the morning!
