Snack

[Mr.X]

I watch my carbs, but need to put on some size and mass.....So, if my overall carbs and calories for the day are low, some hot cocoa with a little bit of protein powder (hope it disolves) and a ABB zero sugar protein bar would be a decent snack before bed? I'm current;y eating a bunch of roasted peanuts, and veggies w/ ff dip and a huge frosted protein shake.....just feel bloated in the am......hope I can make the switch....anyone partake?

I think the hot cocoa is fine and so is the sugar free protein bar as long as you add 100mg Glucorell-R and about 15g psyllium husk fiber after or before, you should be fine.

Nope never....if I do, it's 1 slice of bacon and 1 egg w/ some fiber . But I guess if you like the stuff a lot, I would go ahead and have it, for treating yourself can be very helpful - epsecially in the long-run.

I guess if I can stay under 10% and eat late night, then why not? I look at it as repair from training and fuel for my am cardio.......

I think it would be fine, just add a big fiber before you eat/drink and you'll be fine.

I usually don't endulge, but if I do it's something I like once a week during a carb-up.
