Red meat

Red meat is high in both saturated fats and calories. Plus, it's heavy on the digestion, which can interfere with your sleep and make that stubborn belly fat hard to lose. If you want to eat animal protein at night, choose chicken, turkey or fish, and opt for low-fat cooking methods, such as baking, steaming or poaching.
