I make sure I always get protein in the morning (within an hour of waking), after working out and before I go to bed.
I will come back and write a little more later, but I want to add in that I could not survive without my evening eating. Dinner is usually around 7, and it's odd, but salad follows at about 8pm. By 9:30 I have a bowl of fruit salad (with a biscotti, but a 30-odd cal one). Then I have a protein shake (just whey & water) before going to sleep. Without it I know I'd find myself up in the kitchen looking for something to eat! I know most conventional wisdom tells you little to no food in the evening, or no carbs after a certain hour. Well, that just doesn't work for me. This does.
