Shelled Peanuts.........

[JKurz1]

This is my "5 minute before bed" snack with cottage cheese..........I'm just thinking I'm eating too many.......how would you measure the macros for peanuts in the shell.........I prob. eat 4-5 pretty large handfuls, which is probably around 30 peanuts.........60 if there are two in a shell.........this too many calories to consume before bed?

Which would be a better meal if I train late night, slam my pw shake, shower etc and by the time I can get a meal in, it's time to crash........

60 OR SO PEANUTS
1 CUP DRY CURD COTTAGE CHEESE
LARGE CASEIN SHAKE OR..........

BOWL OF VEGGIES (CELERY, BROC, ZUCCHINNI, ETC)
30 PEANUTS 1/2 THE AMOUNT AS ABOVE
LARGE CASEIN SHAKE

I like the first option better myself. Not a huge fan of vegtables before bed.

I like to eat a good chunk of protein and health fats. I might have 8ounces of chicken breast and 1 tbsp of flax oil, or 6 whole eggs. I'm dieting right now though, so normally I would eat a bit more before bed.

Last night I had my favorite snack: 1c CC, a scoop of chocolate whey, and 4 tbsp ANPB. Tastes amazing (like a Reese's PB Cup) and it gives me 700 cals, 70g protien, 37g fat, 21g carbs. Is that too much to eat, an hour before bed?

I personally don't see anything wrong with eatign veggies before bed tho..

If your goal is to add mass, I would say nope!
