Quote:

If you eat too much too late your body will be busy digesting all night instead of letting you get proper sleep.  Additionally, if your body is hungry when your alarm goes off, you are more likely to get up.  Hunger is a basic survival need.  If you still have food in your tummy your body thinks there is no reason to get up.  If you wake up with a growling-hungry stomach, your body will make sure you get off your ass and get what you need.
