Sport Good LATE night snack?

Sport Fitness
What is something decent to eat at night when you are absoultly starving and cannot sleep without having a bite to eat? For whatever reason I was dieing of hunger tonight, and its like 11 at night. And Im completely wired. I taught 2 step classes today, you would think I would be exhausted, but no way, I feel like I could teach 2 more back to back right now. for a snack, I ended up eating a whole wheat low carb pita with about a tablespoon of peanut butter. I still feel like I could eat another one. Is that an okay snack to eat late at night? Or is there something better?
 
Cottage Cheese and natural pb. as a before bed snack.
 
You should grab a bite to eat 2 - 3 hours before bedtime so you don't go to bed feeling very hungry. Also drinking a glass of water helps to alleviate hunger pangs. It usually goes away after a while.

But the most important step in stopping night-time hunger is actually eating a large morning breakfast earlier in the day.

I do all those things. My diary is posted with everything I eat. I eat very healthy, and excercise alot, and lead an active lifestyle at both my jobs. I dont usually get this hungry or wired late at night. I wonder if I just didnt consume enough calories today for the activity level of today and now its catching up to me.

A good latetime snack would be Penuts. well I think thats just me, I love peanuts.

Man, don't get me started on peanuts!! They used to be my biggest vice and one of the main reasons I was overweight (along with beer ;)) - I only eat them on cheat days now and, only ever buy one small bag because, once I get started, I find it very, very hard to stop!! lol

Personally, I eat lowfat greek yoghurt at night (about 100 - 150g) with a scoop of protein mixed in (tastes fantastic!!) and maybe a sprinkling of raisins or sultanas. Sure, there are a few carbs in the yoghurt and raisins but, overall, its a good high protien snack.
