When do you eat dinner?

I like to eat dinner early around five PM, so I can get it out of the way and spend time online at Facebook with friends. What's your dinner time?

When I work late, I will sleep later and not eat supper at a normal time. Usually I will try to maintain my schedule but sometimes it's difficult when I have a project that needs to be done. For those situations I eat later.

It's better to eat the largest meal of the day at noon, but I tend to eat dinner around 3-4.

Do you get upset stomach or acid indigestion when you eat so late?

Around six pm every evening when I get back to the house. I don't mind eating as early as 4:30 though if I'm dining alone. That way I can have a snack later while watching TV or catching up on Facebook.

That's not very late. The later you eat, the more likely your body is to store the calories as fat. So it's good to eat a very light supper if none at all.

We eat dinner sometime between four and seven pm, just depending on what else is going on in the household or who is in the house at the time. If there is just two of us, then we eat earlier in the evening. If there are more family members attending dinner, then we wait longer as there is a more elaborate dinner preparation.

Eating a big meal at noon helps to fuel your body through the rest of the day. Though it could also make you tired or sluggish if you eat the wrong kinds of food. Just best to stick with lean protein and raw vegetables for the main meal.

I typically try to eat dinner around three or four hours before I intend to go to bed. I don't do it for any other reason besides the fact that I get terrible indigestion if I eat just before bed. If I have food that is still processing and I go to sleep, in the morning I feel about as nauseous as if I had food poisoning. This is because I'm incredibly prone to heartburn, and I noticed that it's at its worst when I eat and then lie down. It is no wonder that doctors do not recommend lying down after a meal, it wreaks havoc on your digestive system and can lead to some serious problems.

That being said, I still have a midnight snack now and again, but I honestly regret it every time.

We usually eat dinner around 8 pm or 9 pm. The reason why we eat dinner a bit late is that we don't eat breakfast most of the times and just have lunch a 5 pm snack and a dinner. That's it!

Family dinner is like 7pm the earliest and 9pm the late one. Usually my brother cooks our food and he cooks early.

I usually do this between 7:30p.m. and 9:00 p.m. every day. For me it's better to eat dinner at this time so I won't get hungry later at midnight. It's not that late but neither that early. I take a break from my work to go and prepare something for myself and then go back to action.

Because of the type of work I do, I am always at the office by 5 pm, which is the time you always take your dinner. So, I cannot join you in taking dinner at that particular time. So, I always take dinner between 8-9 pm when I am relaxed at home and not eating in a hurry. However, I always take light meals at night so as to be able to enjoy my night or wake up in the middle of the night to start my studies or any other task I might want to perform in the night.

Our office time is 8 in the morning up to 5 in the afternoon but I usually stay in the office up until 6 or 7 in the evening due to the nature of work. Not most of the time but there are certain weeks or months when we really had a large order of printing and sticker which are needed to be cut customized so we ended up on having over time with no pay. Well sometimes there are rush jobs that needs to be done so we are paid only if there's one or maybe a lot. So mostly I eat between 7 to 8 in the evening after all of our jobs are done.

I usually eat dinner before six o'clock in the evening because for my digestive system to rest around 10pm before I go to sleep. They say that it is not a good idea to sleep with a full stomach. You can be bloated and have nightmares and never wake up because of the stomach working hard even if you are sleeping.

for me i eat dinner around 7:00 pm or 7:30pm we don't eat to early because it will make us hungry at mid night and midnight snacks is not good if everyday midnight snacks so 7pm is okay with us.

We usually eat around 08:00 PM - 09:00 PM because we always wait for my mom to come home from work and my grandpa always says, "The family that eats together, stays together."

We eat together at 8 pm and sometimes 7 pm but most of the time i am late from my work so i usually eat alone at 10 pm. There are times also that i forget to eat my dinner and sometimes i am very tired that seems no time to eat so i put it in sleep. There are times that i wake up at 2 or 3 am and when i feel hungry i eat serves as my time of dinner. We have different schedule of eating depends on the situation. Aside all the very best time to eat is eating with a complete and happy family.

It changes very often and it's different on weekdays and on weekends. I eat some small lunch (or a sandwich) around 1pm and I have the bigger, warm meal (call it dinner or supper) around 6pm. I know that in warmer climates people eat even later because it's difficult to eat when it's still really hot outside.

There's no way my family has late dinner, unless it is an special occasion, like Birthdays, Anniversaries, Welcomes. Our record it's always Christmas and New Year's dinner, which is insane, because my relatives from my Mom's side, have dinner at 12:00 by tradition. That means starving to me. But in our day by day dinner, we use to eat at 7:00-7:30 pm, sometimes even earlier, depending on the time we're all at home, we like to have dinner together.

Typically, my family eats around 5:30 - 6 pm. We insist dinner being family time and then everyone can go off and do their own thing.

I usually have dinner at 8 - 8.30 pm. However at times if I have urgent works to complete then I have it at 9 or 10 pm. I don't like to have dinner early as I usually feel hungry later on at night and I have to snack which is very unhealthy.

Feeling hungry at night is one of the things that I hate and it gets worse when you have nothing that you will eat at that time of the day. This is the reason I prefer to take late dinners not minding how I will feel afterwards.

My close friend has even gone the extra mile of telling me how risky it is to eat late dinners, but since it is something that I enjoy, I don't feel that changing it soon.
