i still eat carbs before bed time and i havent had any repurcussions

Yeah, but I'll bet you're under 30...

I don't think that actually waking up to eat is such a great idea. Unless you wake up in the middle of the night cause your stomach is growling and you REALLY feel starved. Remember that our bodies have been sleeping at night for thousands of years and are quite aware that they likely wont get any food. Kind of the reason why our heartbeat and breathing slows, etc. etc.

That's just opinion though, I'm as full of shit as the next guy. Probably more so..lol!

I get in extra protein/calories by pounding a protein shake (sometimes with flax, if bulking) when i get up to piss in the middle of the night. Then I gotta piss again a few hours later 'cause of the shake. Oh well.
