Whenever possible, avoid eating generous portions of food at night. When your body slows down and prepares for sleep, the calorie burning process takes place at a slower rate. Never consume bread before going to bed and ensure that you avoid the butter. Instead, choose poultry or fish as your meal, with a vegetable side dish.
