I am bulking and I do not eat anything after 8pm in the evening I drink iced tea-that's it. I am not a big fan of most weight gainers because of the sugar content. I consume whole milk throughout the day--a gallon a day when bulking and I eliminate it completely when cutting.

ok thanks, so the gainer would probably just make me fat at night.
a protein shake should be ok though right? i mean u gotta have something in u while u sleep. i usually stay up until 11 o clock anyway.

I go by the rule eat for what you are going to do not what you did, however if you are really a hard gainer a protein shake at night may be what you need. I prefer to be an eating machine all day and to give my digestive system a break while I am sleeping.

thanks for the help.

I take a weight gained when I sleep, then i wake up half way through my sleep and take another shot of it.

Your body is in a super-absorb-nutrients state whiile your asleep, much moreso than when your awake so it pays to take a good amount of protein at night and the carbs at night issue isnt as big as most people make it out to be either.
