    Are you eating enough before bed? Does having a glass of water help? Can you build a 2am snack into your calories?

    I usually wake up and snack between 2-3am
    Those calories are built into my daily allowance
    Currently
    1 protein bar
    2 rice cakes with almond butter

    Protein bars are trustworthy? I would think they are just like candy.

    If it fits in your calories then there’s nothing wrong with it, right? Heck, there’s even protein so probably a perfect snack.

    eat a meal full of protein and fiber before you go to bed.
