After midnight eating

homesbyd

I woke up at 2am hungry, I ate a container of yogurt... do I add that to yesterdays food log or the next days food log???

I tend to log food after a decent nights sleep.
for example I am on night shifts this weekend. Everything I eat tonight (Saturday till 0730 Sunday morning) goes as Saturday. Once I have a period of sleep and wake up Sunday evening I start logging for that day

Whatever fits best with your days, long as you stick to your goals (and don't do it every night) it won't make any difference

Small scoop of peanut butter is awesome at fixing late night hunger pangs too but pretty high in cals.

thanks for your reply, peanut butter sounds good...I think I will put the midnight snack on the day before, so Im mindful about how I snack, knowing my calories may have been at 1200 for the day...

thanks foryour reply, I do do 12 hour shifts... so it makes it difficult. I agree, If I havent completed a total nights sleep, I will put item eaten on previous day....

It doesn't really matter. Whatever works for you, so long as you choose one or the other and consistently log it that way.
