Even if you eat at home saying you have to eat before many people are off work seems like a rather arbitrary restriction for the sake of 2 or 3 hours. And I say that as someone who does sometimes eat earlier and often don't really have 3 meals a day.

The body doesn't significantly start burning fat for fuel until glucose stores are exhausted, which on average takes at least 12 hours of fasting. Every hour after is running on "fat batteries", so a few extra hours is the difference between zero fat burned and several oz of fat burned.
