Tawnee: Well, so, my two cents on this would be: do what you need to do, but not — basically you want to have the most quality sleep above all else, so let’s say, for example, if you’re not eating enough and if you are in the heat of training — which, Lucho, I know you can attest to this — and you wake up in the middle of the night and you’re starving (Lucho: Hahaha! I used to do that all the time!) — yeah, that’s not good because now you’re sacrificing the bigger picture of quality sleep, like you want beautiful, uninterrupted, amazing, like dead asleep kind of sleep every night, so you need to eat, you need to experiment with yourself — and this is definitely going to weigh in on, like, how much you’re training each day — what is going to allow you fall into that deep sleep and not get too hungry and wake up in the middle of the night and needing food or, at the opposite end, don’t gorge yourself with chocolate and wine and, you know, heavy snacks five minutes before you then just crawl into bed and your stomach is gurgling because it’s just in, like, this distress from this crap you just, like, poured in while watching your TV show and, you know, yeah. So… (L: ) Whoa! That was a bit of a tangent rant! (L: That was awesome! I like that!)
