A calorie is still a calorie no matter if it's eaten at 11AM or 11PM. That said, it is often helpful for many people to curb their daily calorie intake (if they are interested in weight management) by setting a cut-off time at night to stop eating. It is also much healthier and in your best interest to eat small frequent meals throughout the day to keep your blood sugar steady and give a boost to your metabolism. So try not to eat most of your calories at dinnertime or before bed.
I think it's great that you take a nap when you can. Napping is a wonderful way to de-stress and re-energize yourself during a hectic day. Eating before napping is perfectly fine as long as it falls into your daily food weight budget.
And remember: The holidays are a joyous time of year but can also be a source of major stress for many people. Stress can harm your health, which is why it’s important now more than ever to prioritize taking care of you too. Focus on eating well, exercising, and getting enough sleep. Learn to say no, and avoid pressures from others’ expectations—as often as you can.
