I'm going to be working night shift 11:30pm to 8 am. I need to get on an eating schedule for weight loss. I'm not sure how to start. Here's what I thought I'd do.
8:30 am low fat yogurt and toast
9am-3 sleep
3 lo cal snack
5:30 lunch
8-10:30 nap
10:30 lo cal snack
2 am supper
4:30 or 5 low cal snack
That looks good, although you're only actually having two meals a day... lunch and supper... so make sure your 'snacks' are substantial and not just a 100 cal snack pack ... you know what I mean. Fruit and nuts or something like that. Protein is good as it keeps you full for a long time.
Good luck working night shifts! Not sure I could do that
It looks pretty good. Just make sure you are still getting your daily needed calorie intake. If you don't, you will actually start gaining weight again because your body goes into starvation mode. So if you have your calories figured out just try to find a plan that works for you and spread it out throughtout your "day". Remember to get your water in also. Good luck on the night shift. I know I can't do it.
I work nights, so I do:
7AM - 1PM sleep
1PM - breakfast
7 PM - dinner
8PM - 6 AM work
1 AM - lunch
I don't eat when I come home because I'm going straight to bed, anyways. I'm usually too busy to snack at work, so I just try to get in three squares. If I'm hungry at home, I eat a piece of fruit or something, but I try to eat whole foods and tend to stay full between meals (lean meats, whole grains, fruits and veggies, fat free dairy, olive oil).
8:30 p.m.: A small snack (usually a piece of fruit)
10 p.m. or so: Lunch
3 a.m.: Dinner
If I am hungry when I get home, I will usually have another piece of fruit, a small handfull of a dry cereal like Cheerios, or a slice of toast with fat-free butter spray.
