LOL, I had to read the title about 5 times until I figured out the error.

I need more coffee.

I would say it was the refrigerator light coming on during a midnight snack that is the cause for the weight gain.

My advise, unscrew the refrigeator bulb. ;-)

Look at it this way..... when you leave your clothes in a dark closet - they shrink......LOL

[Sacajaweau]

Is there really an obesity epidemic?? Or do we just want everyone to eat the same thing at the same time so we can calculate "time of death" with the same exactness as climate change.

How much weight is too much weight. I'm sick of being "charted".

As opposed to, “Too much light at day at night...” or “Too much light at night at day...”

[EGPWS]

So, how much did this pertinent information cost us?

Perhaps that contributes to the “freshman 10” that people gain when they go to college. Not just the extra snacks, but the late nights by the desk lamp studying.

That classic slow Chicago blues tune by Jimmy Reed classic, “Bright Lights, big city. Goin’ to my baby's head” might need an update.

Oh, and you *immediately* thought of pingin’ me, eh?!?!? ;’)

Unbelievable that this type of stuff is what our money goes to. Seriously, who comes up with this stuff?

[Wee-Weed Up]

Makes sense, lol

[TheOldLady]

People who want our money and petition a willing gubmint that will take it from us and give it to them.

Thought I recalled your desiring a personal locus of negative rotund.

I have this problem as sometimes I have to write at night through the night and it sets off my poor eating habits. I am very, very disciplined in my eating even counting calories daily. Yet when I stay up even one night a week to write through the night, I do have weight gain and it screws up my eating cycle that next day and often days to follow even with a regimented workout schedule. It is critical if one wants to maintain weight or lose it that they sleep atleast 7-8 hours a night if this is what works for their body. (and eat and workout appropriately for body size and need.)
