    Before Bed/Midnight Snacks

    What are the best things to eat before bed or in the middle of the night?

    I usually just have a few crackers with peanut butter or a bowl of cereal... are there better things I should be eating in the middle of the night when I have to?

    for some reason protein drinks don't really satisfy my hunger though

    not to mention that stuff's expensive and i only like having a shake after my work out

    there's gotta be something i can EAT without packing on the pounds in my sleep :P

    You really do not need the carbs, stick with protein and fat.

    I have a whey protein shake with natural peanut butter right before bed.

    Whey just won't do it for me...even with fat.

    try tuna...it works pretty well...or some cottage cheese.
    Searching for the right balance...

    I like a can of albacore tuna over romaine with 2T of an oil based dressing. The fat ties me over so I don't wake up in the middle of the night starving.
