Does anyone work out really late at night?

I wake up pretty engorged and sometimes leaking. I wake up my daughter to BF around 7:30. She's a slow eater, and sometimes doesn't finish until about 8:30. My MIL keeps her for now, and she gets here around 8:30. I have to be at work at 9:00. I go home at lunch to see her and BF. After work, I don't want to miss a second of time with her. She goes to sleep for the night pretty late, sometimes as late as 10:30 or 11:00. I've heard that you shouldn't exercise late at night b/c it messes with your sleep, but I'm sort of a night owl anyway. One person cautioned me that it is bad for your heart to work out late at night, but I've never heard that before. Anyone else work out really late at night? I need to get this weight off. I have 30 pounds to lose. My knees are starting to hurt!

Re: Does anyone work out really late at night?
I do. I have to get up around 5 a.m. to be at work by 7. Like you said, once I get home I don't want to miss out on anymore time with LO and DD so I don't start my workout until 10:30 or so when they are asleep and I've gotten a little bit of housework done.
So far it hasn't messed with my sleep. But I am so tired I don't think there is much that could keep me awake! I've never heard that it might be bad for your heart either.
