    I have a similar problem, where I have a delivery job early in the morning, then sleep until noon and work until 6, then sleep again. Then on Mondays, my day shift is all day long, which throws my sleep out of whack, so I could be sleeping 14 hours out of one day, then 3 out of another... that really affects my calorie intake.

    I work nights, but my schedule never changes, so it's easier to stay on track.

    I work nights, and when I work, I take fresh veggies, fruit, whole grain crackers, instant cream of wheat, roasted chicken, etc. Things I can pick at through the night or as I have time (I'm an RN that does 12 hr shifts).
