This is the suggested amount.

I violate it myself most of the time I guess.

But then again I sleep at odd times to begin with a lot of the time these days.

 

[Matthiasa]

Before sleep or to make you fall asleep?
If the latter and excluding pills anything with a stupidly high calorie count that isn't just from sugar will do.

 

[sportage]

Hot coco works but I'd think the caffeine in the chocolate would be counter productive?

 

[Kaido]

No food for me for 2 or 3 hours before bed, otherwise I get acid reflux

 

[Ackmed]

I eat whatever I want, I don't let time of day dictate what I eat or don't.

 

[Zeze]

I eat whatever I want, I don't let time of day dictate what I eat or don't.

This.

I did this even when I was in shape and running 4 miles 3x a week.

As long as you maintain caloric deficit. Hill I even aye instant Ramen

It took me a long time to accept it's not what you eat, it's how much you eat (calorie-wise). And to dial it down even more, the IIFYM route with how much protein, carbs, and fats you eat in relation to the overall calorie intake. It's simple, once you understand (and accept) it, it's just not intuitive because it makes sense that broccoli & chicken = good for you & make you lose weight, but you can do that with Twinkies & donuts just as well as plant & animal foods. The article I always pull out for reference:

Right now I don't eat anything within an hour or two of bed but may think about putting in some protein before bed to help with muscle growth. This article has a lot of good citations and good take-aways:

Yup, as much as I like a snack right before bed, it's generally unwise.

 

[Carson Dyle]

Best foods to eat before sleeping: none.

Agreed. None.

I generally don't eat within three to five hours of sleeping and sleep much better. I seldom eat anything after 7PM.

I stick to low acidity foods at night so that I dont have heartburn. No dairy, nothing with tomato, and no sour ales after midnight.

 

[futurefields]

Milk is acidic?

 

[core2slow]

5 slices of bacon.

 

[EliteRetard]

Milk is acidic?

Yep. And it can actually lead to calcium loss in the bones.
People wonder why osteoporosis is so common in America.
