    It is too late after you fall asleep. A good snack is something you enjoy that fits your calories and other goals.

    What kinds of snacks do you like? Popcorn? Fruit? I could eat pudding at any time of the day

    I can only speak to what's been working for me:

    For the past 2 months I've been eating about 1/5 of my calories within an hour of my bedtime and I'm down about 18 lbs.

    That being said, I am a late eater, and I specifically plan my calories throughput the day so I can eat late. No matter what I did in the past (eat large meals early, small meals throughout the day, etc) I always ended up eating late, so now I just plan it into my calories. It's been working.

    I save calories in the evening for ice cream. And I go to bed anywhere from 1-3 hours later. Unless you have problems sleeping on a full stomach, there is no "too late".

    Was it all melty when you woke up or did you eat it in your sleep?

    I've half fallen asleep while still chewing some kind of food or another (probably a cookie or chocolate). :)

    Whatever you want, that fits into your calorie goals :) It's about 9pm here and I'm eating 200g of cherries along with a cup of coffee right now.

    Also, timing of meals/snacks don't matter-just do whatever time works best for your preferences/schedule!

    I enjoy Fiber One brownies or baked bars such as coffee cake or lemon bar. If have enough calories left I'll have 8 ounces of milk. If I'm lucky it's chocolate milk. :#

    I often have a piece of toast with honey about 11:30 pm or midnight or so ... not long before bed. :)

    I don't deliberately snack. I'm eating now and it is 9:03pm, but I'll probably not be in bed until midnight.

    Lately I've noticed I'll eat sometime small but it's close to bed time, and I'm trying to break that habit

    I like a little snack after dinner. It's usually 100 calories or less. Creamcicle, Fudgcicle, Halo Top, popcorn or Ritz Crisp & Thins crackers.

    Grilled kale and pine nuts 9 hours before bedtime.

    No such thing as too late. I have my dinner between 10:30 - 11:30pm most nights and go to bed by midnight. Still losing weight.
