I know that eating late at night before going to bed is not a great idea but I tend to be a night owl and do get hungry late at night. Does anyone have any suggestions for snacks that would be good for late night eating?

    I eat what I crave no matter what time it is. I have eaten 2 oz of farmers cheese while getting into bed. As long as it fits in your cals it really doesn't matter. Just dont do what I did the other day I had the cals to rat 2 servings of mini marshmallows so I did and man that was the worst feeling ever!

    Why is it not? As long as you are in a caloric deficit on average, then you will lose weight if that's your concern.

    Plain Greek yogurt with a bit of cocoa powder mixed in is yummy to me!

    How do you know eating late at night is not a great idea?

    I eat most of my calories after 6pm, and eat right up to bedtime without issue, as do many people. Recently I've been loading up prior to bed, then going to the gym pre-breakfast on an empty stomach, again no issues here.

    The only reason I see for not eating close to bedtime is for personal preferences in regards to indigestion etc.
