I work in the NICU dept as a CNA and I work nights too! I don't eat at night whatsoever! I know it was hard at first and takes a lot of motivation but trust me its possible! What I've been doing is bringing with me a 24oz bottle that came with my nutribullet and filling it with my protein meal drink. When I get hungry I just reach for my drink and take small sips or drink half of it so that I have enough for lunch. I'm not sure how far you are into this process but this would be the best thing I could recommend for you. This has honestly helped me a lot and I no longer eat at night even when I'm not working. Let me know if you try this and how you liked or didn't like it.

Hi. But if you are active and working at night, what difference does it make? Your living hour change to mostly night. You have to eat at some point. You would be sleeping during the day. It also depends on what stage of the process you are in. May be it would be good you do your protein shake at work with a very light meal. Ex: I consider a light meal small green apple with 2 oz of white cheese strings. Hope that helps.????

I have been working rotating shifts for over 20 years now, so "night" time is always changing for me. I usually just have a Protein shake/smoothie about an hour or so after waking up (whenever that is), then will have a light meal about 6 hours after waking up, then a more substantial "dinner" about 4-6 hours before bedtime. I don't really think it makes much difference what time the clock says. For me.....snacking before bedtime is more of a concern.
