Food before bed

[Dman22]

I don't have a very strict diet at all but I am happy with what I look like and the gains I have gotten. I work long days so i have to go to the gym late. I know it's not good to eat 3 to 4 hours before bed but I'm starving after the gym. What can I eat that won't kill the six pack? I can tell if i eat bad foods that I have to do a little extra cardio the next day or so

Take a protein shake, make some eggs, cottage cheese anything that contains protein and is minimal on carbs.

You could eat, as long as you don't over do it with carbs. The last thing you want before bed is an insulin spike.

Is it not bad to go to bed hungry to? I could eat a big tub of cottage cheese and still be hungry. I don't tho. But a shake only, I would be starving.

I would do cottage cheese. Low sodium if possible. If you have a Safeway near you, this is where I get mine from. I add flaxseeds to fill me up a little more (Trader Joes).
