Not eating late at night is not an option. So what should I eat late at night? I work out at about 730 or so and I come home and I'm starving. What makes you gain the least weight? I'm putting back the pounds when I get home....Any advice on practical stuff I can buy at stores? What to snack on when you're at home on computer or watching movie? Cheese? Jerky? Fruits? Thanks.......
"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"
I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.
The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.
Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.
Any advice on what to eat late at night and not gain weight??

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."
Attraction runs on a clock.
She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.
The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."
One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.
Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

As Colossus says go easy on the carbs. I work nights also (6:30pm - 11:00pm), so I usually take two meals to work with me. That way I'm not so hungry when I get home.
If you must eat carbs, go for the slow digesting variety (wholemeal bread, brown rice, sweet potatoes). These will better please your appetite, without causing a surge in insulin which leads to increased fat storage. Note that eating foods high in protein (meat, poultry, dairy, nuts) will also better satisfy your appetite. Cottage cheese is especially good before bed as it contains a lot of casein, which digests very slowly. If you have some good muscle mass, casein will help prevent your body entering a catabolic state (basically your body eats itself) whilst sleeping, due to its slow rate of digestion.

Casein protein is a staple every night for me (especially if I've been drinking that night).
It's done wonders as far as keeping more of my gains in the gym.

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"
Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.
You've been "getting ready" for two years.
She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.
Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

Yeah not enough guys take casein. Everyone is so brainwashed that 100% whey isolate is the only way to go....but it's not. It's good POST-workout, but the rest of the time you need to be taking in a good protein blend. Whey isolate is absorbed very quickly and doesn't provide the sustained levels of amino acids in the blood stream you need while sleeping.

I'd suggest against more then 1-2 piece of wheat bread(which have grains). Or at least eat that stuff 3-4 hours before bed if your dead serious about keeping a low bodyfat.
Fat free milk is also a good one!

Cottage cheese and a teaspoon of flaxseed oil.
I've been using that combo every night for the past couple years, and it has done wonders for me. The slow digestion will keep your body from fasting during the night, and you will actually wake up ready to eat again. This is important because most people are not hungry when they wake up in the morning, which is a critical time to eat, especially if you're trying to build muscle.
If you're not a fan of cottage cheese, any form of casein protein will do the job.

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"
Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."
You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.
She's been waiting forty minutes.
Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.
