Night Binge: How Do You Stop Waking Up At Night Feeling Hungry?

 If you are walking up hungry in the middle of the night, then you need to check your diet or eating. I realized that when we skip food most of the time (especially in daytime), we tend to eat twice as much before bedtime. And if you eat before 10 pm you will most likely get hungry as you are getting a second wind. Just make sure you get enough protein in your diet and try as much to avoid snacks as night food. A trick you can use is staggering your meals closer to the time you go to bed.

When you are always waking up hungry in the middle of the night, it might be because your blood sugar is low. Drinking a lot of water can help, or sipping a cup of milk, as this can serve as a liquid meal replacement. You can also have a midnight snack. However, don't go to the fridge at 4 am and eat a whole bag of shredded cheese because you will gain a lot of weight after a while. A greek yogurt bowl (add protein powder if you want more protein) with fruit and Granola Crumble can do some trick.

How many calories are you eating a day? You will need to know this as it will help you determine how much you get in your diet for that day. You also want make sure your calories deficit is not too low for your activity level.

Living a keto lifestyle could help. The ketogenic diet is the best way to control hunger if you are in ketosis. The fat adaptation process takes times but once you get in, you'd feel more situated with a higher energy level. Most people struggling with weight issue have found ketogenic lifestyle to help control insulin that causes their uncomfortable hunger over the years. If some intermittent fasting and workout routine could be combined with the ketogenic diet, the results maybe perfect. Consistency is the key though.

You need to stay constant as long as you are doing what your body needs. Make sure you are eating enough throughout the day. And filled with lots of fiber and carbs in small amount. If you need to eat at midnight when you are hungry, do eat. But avoid fat foods with high cholesterol. Take some protein snack, drink water and sleep again.
