So to tie that together, if the 1993 paper held true and – the follow-up paper held true and eating before bed was going to make you fatter. What you should have saw in your study is you should have saw the rate of lipolysis go down. You should have seen less fat burning. We're going to refer to it like that.

But when you saw that it didn't go down, it stayed the same, this is actually the powerful conclusion that that meal you had before bed did not make you fatter and did not at all alter your fat-burning either ability overall or the rate at which you're doing it. Correct.

I have had that scenario with totally different topics multiple times in my lab with my students where they come in freaking out. My thesis didn't work. My dissertation failed. And you have to really step back and say, what is the data telling me? In your particular case, it was potentially, and one would argue, more powerful, the fact that it wasn't different.
