What do you eat when you're supposed to be sleeping?

I always opt for bananas and avocados. o.O

    If I'm laying awake in bed and should be sleeping....I try my best to ignore it. And if I can't I'll drink water. I've read that you shouldn't eat past 8:30pm because your metabolism slows down. But, if I do give in, I might have Fruit Loops

    :/ That is so a myth. Your body can't tell time like that. ><

    I often find myself craving udon noodles. only... i NEVER buy udon noodles, so thats weird. I eat sugar free strawberry jello. it feels like you're eating something, but that calories and sugars are so much lower. :D

    String cheese and grapes <3
    Those WW string 60cal string cheeses taste pretty darned good.

    I try to ignore the "OMG I have to eat something" feeling. Sometimes it's impossible so I might be good and eat a piece of fruit. But just as easily might have a couple of cookies.

    I don't often have the "OMG I have to eat" thing after 8 or 9PM, unless I've been drinking. Then it's the drunk munchies and pretty much everything is fair game then.

    I forgot about the drunk munchies! I get drunk rarely, but when I do I have no self control! :blushing:

    yeah I basically can't drink if there is food available - one glass of wine is ok but 2 gets me uninhibited enough to start munching. Last time I did it I went through a whole box of water crackers, a ton of cheese, and a bunch of salami nuggets. It was like 1800 calories.

    OK the fact that you said ROFLCOPTER made me almost LOL for real. Good thing I sit in my own office!! When I don't have anything to worry about 2am seems to be a normal bedtime for me. I always want something PB or chocolate or apples - yeah I know odd. Just always seems what I go to. Used to be pizza!

    I find myself constantly eating the leftover biscuits or something from dinner. :frown:
