Vegetables bad at late night times?

[Graphite]

I just finished a huge bowl of lettuce, a bit of vineagar, salsa and jalpeono's [sp?] and its almost 11:30 pm hahaha good snack im full now.

Bad or good? I forgot to consume vegetables all day and tried to get it before the end of the day.

bad? not as bad as a bowl of ice cream. Its got carbs which you try to avoid at night but theyre from veggies and theres prob fiber in there too so i dont see it as that bad. They say youre supposed to consume a slow digesting protein late night like nonfat cottage cheese.

Have some protein with them, and you are good to go.

1 lb of peanuts? lol isn't that a big much?

I hope veggies before bed aren't bad, that or a shake are usually one of my last meal's.

Again, for the umpteenth time, if you are in an energy deficit, any type of nutrient intake will be used.

There is no magic witching hour where your body shuts down from carb digestion and says, anymore, and it will be turned to fat!

^^I agree.

Just a general comment ... I try to avoid any complex carbs in my last meal (unless if directly after PM training). I typically stick to Protein + Fat before bed. Helps me sleep much better too.

yo kurz...garbage????...Im saying for fat loss carbs before bed may not be the best choice. And before anyone says it..No he did not speak of fat loss in his original post.

I have lost 157 lbs. eating every night before i go to bed. I eat tons of veggies too like a HUGE salad with tons of vegtables and I lost all that weight
