Midnight STARVING!

[Pat_McCrotch]

IT sounds liek you aren't eating enough throughout the day. When I wake up I usually just down 5 tbsps of ANPB. There's a quick and easy 500kcal with a reasonable macronutrient ratio. Throw in a glass of skim milk and you are good to go. Or have a shake ready to go that has some ground up rolled oats in it or something to keep you feeling satiated.

is that you in the avatar? dayum bro. Thats how I wanna look

I finish working out about 430pm. I usually lay down about 9ish as I have to be up at 5am for work. Problem: I have ZERO appetite postworkout. I usually have a shake, and force down a salad about an hour later. Then I'm stufed for the night. However, midnight, 2am, 4am rolls around and I am STARVING...it actually wakes me up. Last night for example, I had a casein shake with almonds at 9pm, slep, woke starving, had a muscle milk with some veggies.......slept....woke at 2am, same deal....another shake with some pb.....does this mean I'm not eating enough during the day(Im stuffing myself with 3500 cals).......or what? Does anyone else have this problem? Is this a recipe for fat gain? If I continue to drink shakes, eat bars, veggies, etc when I wake?

a salad an hour after your workout? why not a meal? u aint eating nearly enough it doesnt seem. u should have a post workout shake, an hour later a full meal and an hour and a half to 2 hours after that another meal. then something before bed.

Im eating a whole meal prebed, but still waking up and eating 2-3 times a night....usually a hommade protein bar or some veggies, or whatever.......it's all clean so there wouldnt be a problem, right??? Hell, bruce eats pizza at 2am.....lol

I think the best way to get you back to sleep quickly is to get your during sleep meals

next to your bed. so that you dont have to get out of your bed alot.

for example prepare yourself 2 meals (2tbsp of anpb & fat free CC) if thats not enough

add 200g broccolli since its not calorie dense & will keep you full longer.

 

[Pat_McCrotch]

break down your daily caloric intake. be honest with yourself so we can help.

it sounds like you are not getting enough meat in your diet. try a big ass steak before bedtime with some veggie medley.

[JKurz1]

[Vascular Freak]

just roll with it...if you wake up and are hungry just eat a nice well rounded bb snack...it just means your metab is moving.....if you feel your staying to lean and want to grow than up the cals throughotu the day.

How much do you weigh? You have 3-4 hours between meals. ad a protien shake in thier or two or even three
