What food is OK after 9pm?

[maxspeed96ct]

Im a late night lifter, sometimes i get home its Usually around 9pm, and im starving after working out.

Right now im trying to loose the little bit of fat that is left in my mid section and gain some strength all around.

Basicly just get into better sape is a simple way to put it.

what food could I could I eat at that time of night ?

ZERO carbs....

Low Fat Cottage Cheese is perfect because it sort of acts as a "time-released" protein.

Throw in another Lean Protein like Tuna

he is right.what ever you do at this time of night do not eat any carbs of any kind.stick to protein only.chicken no skin,tuna,shakes with protein only,meat and things like that are best.

Protein shake mixed with water after workout. Chicken breast or tuna before bed helped me.

try and time your carbs early in the day and pre and pwo....anpb, almonds, cottage cheese are all good sources of healthy fats and protein before bed.

I lift at night too.

You can definetly have carbs after you workout, I prefer sweet potatoes, brown rice, ect... complex carbs.

then if you have time before you sleep if it's a few hours later like myself then i eat again.. just protein and fat meal.

if your macros are on point, you'll loose weight.

Nixing carbs when you train at night is an absolutely horrid idea.....Keep them high! I train and finish about 6pm...I am usually crashed out by 930 or 10.....I am eating 100-200 carbs between 6 and 10......carbs are not the devil!!!!!!!11

i agree carbs are not the enemy...but when i eat carbs in that quantity late at night...i am def not as tight the next day then i am when my last meal is sans carbs. there are def 2 sides of this debate...

I find that carbs will leave me hungry, while cottage cheese or almonds will hold me over until I fall asleep.

It really does go both ways though.
