Eating Late night.

Ok so i started a second job, one full time M-F 7-4 and other PT only on Thursday, Firday and Sat - 5-10 (some sundays). Now the issue is i have lunch at noon, so by 5 or 6pm i m ready for dinner, which is fine on the days i m off frm the 2nd job, but on the days i work the 2nd job i have been eating another small meal ard. 10:30pm. I just get so hungrey once i get home…that i have to eat (2nd job is retail so a lot of walking and talking).
Now i dont knw what to do…becuase i knw this isn’t healthy (desi food at 10pm…bad bad bad). And i will prob. gain weight frm eating so late.

I am working out at least 4 times a week, but i m worried that since i m eating 4 meals i will just gain more weight…please HELP!:help:
oh and the days i work both jobs i eat subway (turkey) 6" for lunch & 6" for dinner (well the meal i have at 5ish).

Any suggestion as to what i could eat thats filling and not full of bad calories??? should i eat a bigger meal at 5pm so that culd last til the next morning?? if so, what?

Re: Eating Late night.

Smaller meals through out the day are better for you then larger portions at one sitting. So if you are eating 4 small meals it's fine. Perhaps, cut down on bread a bit.

smaller meals are better for u

Re: Eating Late night.

you could drink a glass of milk , doesnt have bad calories in it.

Re: Eating Late night.

have fruit at 10pm..or eat a larger meal at 5pm, why dont you have desi food at 5pm so itl fill you up, have something again at 8pm maybe then you wont feel hungry at 10.......

Re: Eating Late night.

eating a meal at 10pm is a big no-no.....if for some reason you have to eat dinner that late at night....make it a light healthy meal.

smaller meals throughout the day is the way to go. consume lots of proteins, fiber (found in fruits) and drink plenty of water to keep you full for longer periods of time.

Re: Eating Late night.

FrozenFire NO MILK . Thank you thgh. :)

Re: Eating Late night.

Re: Eating Late night.

Some time I eat late at night. Then I put skates on and go out about 30-60 mins.
Try doing it. Go for a walk after your meal.

^ 30-60 mins skating after a 15 hours long work day....come on PM give me a break :(

yesterday i went to work (both jobs) and only had three full meals and a cup of mango shake ard 10:30...which workout perfect :)

thanks again everybody.

Re: Eating Late night.

enjoy life, eat at 10pm or 11pm if you want to, we aren't zombies for crying out loud... just make sure you don't blow your proportions out, and mix it up with some recreational exercise sometime in the day.

Desi food at 10pm... most desis in Pakistan go for late dinners, 10 is actually early for 'em and they're fine.

Re: Eating Late night.

I'm with Spock on this one.
Enjoy life. Eat when you feel like eating and what you feel like eating. Just don't over do it.

We are not zombies or robots.....eventually we all tire of routine.....why drive ourselves to that point?
