My girlfriend's neighbor started a diet ~9 months ago and has lost a butt load of weight. All it is is he can't eat anything past 4 pm. He eats dinner at 4 and calls it quits for the night. I've seen him drink beer past 4 but he won't eat anything. Seems easy enough. What do you think?
New diet. Anyone tried it?

Eat a big lunch, and have a salad or something light for dinner, I was amazed how much I lost by following that formula without really changing my activity level. I lost weight and was not starving myself in the least, I was never really hungry.

I bet you sleep alot better too which would only add to the benefits and make you feel so much better just in itself.
I need to lose a few pounds I put on after recent surgery so I'm game for an experiment.

a calorie is a calorie no matter when you consume it. unless you can provide a link to a study that proves otherwise. your neighbor has lost weight because he isn't stuffing himself with food while watching tv or doing whatever he does at night.
Time to put the myths to rest...for the record, i consume 75% of my calories in one meal at night. Since doing this I've lost over 30lbs of fat.
my sources...tons more, but i'm tired and these were the first to pop up in a simple search.
http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/3508745
larger meals at night shown to cause more fat loss compared to larger morning meals (which showed more muscle loss)
http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/9040548
"ingestion of larger AM meals resulted in slightly greater weight loss, but ingestion of larger PM meals resulted in better maintenance of fat-free mass. Thus, incorporation of larger PM meals in a weight loss regimen may be important in minimizing the loss of fat-free mass."

not much of a Bill Maher fan, but this video is funny. And 100% right on as well.

According to recent research,water and green tea is the best way to lose your weight.I took 8 to 12 glasses of water gradually and 2 to 3 times cup of tea in a day.And now i feel much difference in my weight.

Wow I am amazed by the number of "broscience" myths in this thread. Do you guys actually believe this? Just as HugeErect said above... Its simple calories in vs. calories out. Basic units of energy. If you are consuming (more,less, or the same) number of calories than you are burning, you will weigh (more,less, or the same).
