    i always think that i put more weight on when i have a longer day because there are more meal times! Sleeping is better for your body and you don't feel the need for so many carbs

    Hi, I'm in your shoes. I work midnights and I hate coffee. I have to struggle to stay awake. But the good thing is that I only work 3days a week. I sleep when I get off and try to workout when I'm off.

    I love my coffee, but I stay away from Starbucks type stuff. If you like tea, try some vanilla chai, with a little Splenda for a caffeine boost if needed. I take my vitamins right before I go to work so they boost my energy throughout night. I take ALIVE for women, D, Coq10, and collagen because my job is killer on my joints. It makes a huuuuuggge difference in how I feel. Then some melatonin with GABA (for stress) right when I get home so my sleep is deep even if I don't get a whole lot. I try to eat light at night so I don't get tired, I wish my day eating habits were as good. But its all a work in progress!
