Anyone ideas on the best foods for energy while on night shift as a nurse and for performance when training? Thanks.

Oy. Night shift is a struggle. I ate lots of apples and cheese. Don't know how helpful that is...

There's a great user on MFP, @vismal, who is an RN and has posted some great stuff about his habits, both for eating and training. Here's a link to a good one: community.myfitnesspal.com/en/discussion/1276219/i-went-from-morbidly-obese-to-6-pack-abs-ask-me-anything/p1.

Go for protein. String cheese singles are easy to carry along and quick to eat. Greek yogurt, too.
