Night Foods

What type of foods are ok to eat at night?

There is no answer to this question really.  All foods are ok to eat at night.  Just make sure to stay within your calorie allottment for the day

Probably nothing too stodgy or starchy, that sits quite heavily on the stomach and makes it a tad uncomfortable.

If we're talking after-dinner hours then yogurt, cheese, skimmed milk, and white meats are quite good high-protein snacks.

The same ones that are ok to eat in the morning.

You can eat anything at night as long as it is within your calorie allowance. However, most people are discouraged from eating fatty foods as they slow down digestion which might result to bloating or stomach cramps. For dinner, avoid refined carbohydrates and sugars as they might cause your blood sugar to spike too quickly which might lead to midnight snacking. Before bedtime, fruit is the best.

Anything healthy is fine...even if you want a dessert or snack it's okay in moderation. That's the key: Moderation.

Just keep it portion sized so that your tummy isn't too upset to get a good nights sleep.

Rember the more you restrict yourself, the more likely you'll binge later.  This doesn't have to be a struggle.
