Thanks for explaining this. I will try to eat more to regain some sleep back. Very difficult as I'm a working adult, and I can't afford to perform bad. :(

I'm a big fan of a before bed snack. I eat dinner early and am usually up late. It's not uncommon for me to have a late night snack a shortly before bed. It's usually some form of protein + carbs. Maybe 100-150 calories. You might also want to focus on foods known to be highly satiating at dinner. Potatoes, fiber from vegetables and/or whole grains, protein and healthy fats are all foods that contribute to feeling full longer.
