Re: On average, What time do you eat dinner??

Growing up- we would wait for my father to get home from work to have dinner together. Dinner time was at 6pm.
Now- My husband and I have dinner at 7pm

Re: On average, What time do you eat dinner??

I get home around 6:30. Between taking care of the baby & cooking.. I'm lucky if I have dinner on the table by 7:30 (Which is ideal for us). More so , we eat at around 8:15

Between 6 and 6:30 usually. I get home around 5:30 most of the time, so we can't eat too much earlier. Much later, and it starts throwing DC off schedule, since they have to be in bed between 8 and 8:30, and DS likes to have a snack around 7:30.

There is no "right" time. Whatever works for you, although eating too late isn't as healthy, unless you go to sleep later. You don't want to lie down to sleep soon after you eat.

Re: On average, What time do you eat dinner??

like to eat dinner at 6pm, any earlier would be hard as I am usually at work, but any later and I would be starving because I eat lunch at 12pm.

We eat at 6:30. I really want to eat as a family and that is the time DH gets home from the city and not too late for DS.

we usually both get home around 7-7:30 from work so i'd say dinner is usually 8-8:30, sometimes even closer to 9-9:30 if we end up staying later at work.

if i ate dinner at 6, i'd be hungry again at 9!
lunch is usually around 1 or 2 so dinner at 8 is fine with me.

Re: On average, What time do you eat dinner??

Since we both get home between 5:30 and 6, we eat between 7 and 7:30, depending on what I make and how it takes to cook.

4-5pm? Is he 80 years old with the early bird special? Chat Icon




Tell me about itChat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon

We talked about it a settled on 6-6:30 as the time to aim for!

He's a truck driver and his day does start between 3-5AM (depending on his runs for the day) so i understand his wanting to eat early BUT on the otherhand he doesn't go to sleep till 9ish so no need to eat soooo early!

Thanks for everyones relpiesChat Icon
