dont have carbs before bed.... there is no reason too... nothing at all
u can have say a chicken salad before bed... light on dressing..
u can have a whey protein shake before bed..
something like that.. but no carbs
either way it is turned into fat.
i like something either sweet or salty before bed, so i usually go with a peach, or a few strawberries dipped in confectioners sugar (icing sugar), an orange (or 2 :) or even an apple.
if i wwant something salty i take a small pack of veggie chips, some carrot-celery sticks with some salt and lemon, or some air popped popcorn (its only 13 cals for 1 cup:)
its great, but i try to limit my before bed snacks.
a moment on the lips a lifetime on the hips.
Do not eat carbs before bed unless you want body fat. The thing is that when carb are not used up as energy they will store to fat cells. But protein is fine !
So I would say protein !
