I heard something about if you eat before your sleep it is not good for your stomach, but
why is it not good tho, does anyone know , before the fact that you might get fat ...

I usually eat 3-4 bagels just before I got to bed.

Doesn't seem to be causing me any problems.

Mmm, bagels. I like bagels.

From what I've heard you are not supposed to eat within 5 hours of when you go to sleep... supposedly eating and sleeping makes it so you don't digest food as well and it turns to fat.

Although I do this quite regularly and do not have any stomach aches... but I am not slim either. :D

It's fine. I eat a bit of protein every night before bed and I'm sure you'll find that any serious weightlifter does the same.
