    Paramedic in the UK who works 12hr day and night shiffts....find it difficult to get my exercise done and eat healthy when am days (7am-7pm...as long as i do get finished at 7pm but can be up to 10pm before i finish some days!)....get up at 5am and make my healthy smoothies for breakfast at work and lunch...take things i can store in my backpack to snack on if away for whole shift, such as rice cakes, ryvita, apples, nuts/seeds,quest protein bars etc and plenty water....dont have time to exercise before work and usually too tired or late before i get home.
    when i am nights i can usually come home and do my hour of exercise before bed or if i am particularly tired i will have some oatmeal and sultanas or a smoothie (spinach, frozen berries, almond milk, greek fat free yoghurt, almonds ,ginger, chia seeds and a spoon of oats) go to bed for a few hours, get up and do my hour of exercise and go back to bed!:wink:
