as simple as eating your last meal of the day at 2pm.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>He says that one of the big differences between society before the obesity crisis and now is that back in, say, the 1970s, people generally only actually ate food in about a 10-hour window each day (breakfast at 8AM, dinner at 6pm).\u00a0 And the shorter your \u201cwindow of eating\u201d, the more likely that you are able to effectively manage your weight.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>He points out that surprisingly, fasting after 2pm actually produces more feelings of fullness in the evening, once the body gets used to its new schedule after about four weeks.\u00a0 Most test subjects found the fasting period relatively easy to adhere to, but found it difficult to schedule dinner for 2pm\u2026especially those
