Is that why the beaches look like The Blob That Ate San Francisco?

That’s why so many people have fat rear ends - that’s where the sun don’t shine....

I knew that a suntan made me a bit thinner when I was 13.

Science is finally catching up.

We need energy etc when we are awake and active. This is a way to store some fat and release it when it is needed, i.e. during the day.

It is easy to do an experiment:
A) Eat late dinner and food in the evening.
B) Do not eat anything after say 5 pm.

Two weeks of B followed by two weeks of A and another two weeks of B. Make sure that you eat the exact type and amount of food during A and B.

Measure your weight.

Result: What is your guess?

Simplified explanation: Fats are secreted a few hours after the meal, and if we have a late meal the fats are secreted when we are sleeping i.e. when we do not need the extra energy => increase in body weight.
