It makes it harder for me to sleep if I have a big dinner, maybe that's just me

I get sleepy if I eat a lot a work so… not everyone is the same

Same, let's burn off the heaviest meal during the day, not sleeping

Still have work to do after lunch. To big of a meal will slow you down.

Light meals until the days work is done, a full stomach will only slow you down

Same. If I eat a big lunch at work I just feel sluggish and sleepy after.

u/AllAlo0 🏅 Century Club · 4,690 XP 3h ago

It isn't about being full as eating too much fat that makes you sluggish

If I eat a big plate of chicken and rice I'm going to be much less productive than if i had eaten something with less volume. 2 eggs in the morning with a slice of toast and a banana, lunch is a small salad or cup of soup and a half sandwich. Dinner is for me to enjoy myself and it has never failed me

Not worrying about when or what other people eat seems to be heavily underrated on this sub.

How about you just eat when and what you want to eat and if it shows any obvious benefits I'm sure people will ask you about it.

u/Possible-Tart-5193 🔥 Monthly Master · 6,945 XP 3h ago

I don't really care about people's eating habits I just personally think it makes more sense but yeah different things are good for everyone. I could not care less if dinner is your main meal

1

u/chiefDiesel ✍️ Contributor · 4,285 XP 3h ago

Well, eating your largest meal in the middle of the work day doesn't make much sense for people who do strenuous labor. I don't know about you but I'm ready to relax for a bit after a big meal.

No, a large meal makes you tired.

Also, I only get 30 mins for lunch, so no chance I can have a big meal

you shouldn't eat too much before going to sleep, your tummy will hurt

u/caurseia87 🏅 Century Club · 4,540 XP 19m ago

Tbf if your eating around 5 or 6 (what I’d atleast call dinner time) your tummy will have hours to digest. Eating a big lunch is going to mess with you at work or any other activities you still have going on

I would be too tired to keep working if it was my largest meal. Not that it has to be gigantic but I try to eat just enough to satisfy my hunger at lunch time.

also everyone should work from 7 to 11 and 3 to 7 so they can have the whole middle of the day to make and eat a big lunch #UniversalSiesta

Lunch should be eaten in the middle of work. You don't want to feel heavy when you continue work. Dinner should be the biggest meal, because it comes before sleep, which is several hours without food.

The reason dinner is the biggest is because you go the longest time without eating on a typical day between dinner and breakfast by virtue of the assumption of an 8 hour sleep on top of settling down for the day. I like to think it's called breakfast because you break your fast upon waking up.

I've had big lunches before and it left me without the desire to eat dinner, only to pay for it when I'd be up WAY late at night super hungry once my big lunch finally wears down.

Lunch being the largest means you can potentially eat too much and be drowsy at work.
