    I go to work at 7pm and have my break at 9:45, by then I really need to eat something because if I don't then I know when I get home I will be STARVING ( like right now), but it's 1:30 AM and I know I need to sleep and not eat right now! I need to switch to a protein based snack however because right now it's usually just something fairly sugary.

    Why not eat then sleep?

    I often have a snack at night... like a cup of tea and a cookie.
    Last night I ate a box of smarties before I went to bed (not an ideal snack, I know) and was down 1.6lbs this morning from last Thursday.

    I just try to make sure I have enough calories left at the end of the day for a treat, if not then I don't have one :)

    your body can't tell time. Eat when you're hungry. As long as you stay within your calorie limits, you'll be fine
