    If you're super hungry, have something that will not make you feel full but will stave off the hunger. :3

    I think you should eat. If it's just a day here and there it won't kill you. But don't make a habit of eating 500 calories in a day.

    For the love of...yes, eat something. Last I checked, that crap about eating 3 hours before sleeping has been completely debunked anyway. If eating this late screws with your sleep, that's one thing. Otherwise, it's not a problem.

    As a previous poster said, sitting at 500 cals on a day every once in a while won't hurt you, just don't make a habit of it.

    With both of those taken into consideration, I'd say it's pretty much up to you at this point.

    i would eat something like a tablespoon of peanut or other nut butter, drink some full fat milk..nothing thats going to sit on your stomach but waking up in the night hungry is not fun!
