You are not alone with this! It's a frustration that all shift workers deal with, I think. This would be a great question to post in the Facebook group to see how everyone else makes it work. My tips for night shift and counting macros or sticking to your meal plan is to treat the days the same as you would on day shift. AKA: New day begins at Midnight and ends at Midnight. I have found this the easiest because the macro tracking apps, such as MyFitnessPal, are designed this way. Also, completely forget about “breakfast,” “lunch,: and “dinner,” just look at your meals as numbers. Meal one, meal two, etc. Because on night shift, when you think you should be eating “breakfast”, you’re eating chicken and veggies.
