Dear patient You have to take lots of proteins to build and maintain muscle mass. If you are allowed to eat after 9 pm then take lot of meat and chicken in your diet. Also take sufficient carbohydrate in diet so that muscle protein is not utilised to gain energy. Make chart of daily requirements and food intake to balance your body needs. You can also take help from nutritionist to make diet chart. All the best.
