Waking up hungry?

Al3X · **Posted:** February 12th, 2008, 6:08 pm

well recently ive been waking up hungry, around 12am - 2am. ive tried many things such as eating a bit more dinner, or having a small (healthy!) snack before i go to bed. ive also tried breakfast (havent had in quite a while).

but these didnt help at all.

anyone have any advice/ideas why my recent conundrum has been happening? and maybe how to solve it?

thanks,

Maybe you have a tapeworm in your stomach.

Ignore it? How hard is it to say no and go back to sleep when you're hungry? XD

You might have gotten higher metabolism which make you want to eat more.

I always eat right before i go to bed.
...But i wake up thirsty at ~4am a lot.

I don't really see what's wrong with waking up hungry/thirsty and then going to get something. So just do that. *shrugs*

I've heard that if you drink a glass of water right before bed you won't wake up hungry. Don't really know how well it works, as I tend to go to bed late and sleep like a rock till the alarm goes off :wink:

That is a possibility.

When in doubt, go to the doctor!

maybe ur eating dinner too early??
like for example, u might eat dinner at 6pm, then go to sleep at 10pm. so by 12-2am, ur gonna be quite hungry. even with a small healthy snack, it wont really help too much

We eat at 6, and I go to bed at between 11pm and midnight on weekdays. Usually I have something to eat later on before going to sleep like some stewed apple, tinned fruit etc. which keeps me going easily.

Personally I find it pretty easy to ignore my hunger so I'm not sure what the cause could be if this has only started happening recently.

One thing though: never skip breakfast. Unless you wake up at 11-12, then I forgive you.
