    I think your question is is it okay to eat at night after your workouts? If so, eat away. Nothing special required to do the next day. A calorie deficit is a calorie deficit and isn't affected by the clock.

    Meal timing has nothing to do with weight loss. Fat loss is created by a deficit and exercise is for fitness. Lower your body fat and the love handles may disappear. Genetics play a role in fat distribution, however.

    Why would you want to go at any other time?

    It makes no difference when you go.

    If you're hungry after the gym eat, if you're not then don't.
    But I suggest eating some kind of protein after a workout.

    If you want to eat after the gym at night, just plan to save calories for then. I usually save a couple hundred calories for an evening snack.
