We have heard from different celebrity endorsers that one can lose weight if you don't eat after 6 pm. This isn't exactly a myth and researchers can't say that it's absolutely untrue. There are circumstances that may contribute to its working on people who are, let's say junk food addicts. Not eating after six would definitely benefit them because their salt and calorie intakes would be reduced. But if you beleive you can eat with no holds barred the whole day and just stop at 6pm, then you have to rethink your diet. the key to good eating habits is getting proper nutrition from balanced meals. Even eating several light meals a day is all right. It is the daily caloric intake, not any evening curfew, which determines weight loss or gain.
