Its about 4:00 in the morning and I woke up and Im so hungry. I had to get up make some tea and eat some cookies. Because we dont have anything good in the house I have to go shopping. So I thought I would come on mylot and see if anyone else is up. Does this ever happen to you wake up in the middle of the night starving? Share with me whos up?

I'm watching some TV before I turn in and I always like some to eat..so just finished a pancake..with lots of maple syrup...mmm..want your opinion, I know your trying to break the whipped cream addiction, but do pancakes taste good with pancakes? I have to do my grocery shopping tomorrow and might stock up on whipped cream...hehe

Oh yes, that happens to me quite often. I will wake up in the middle of the night starving. I will usually just have a glass of milk and sometimes I log into mylot and do some posting. But I usually only last about half an hour, if I'm lucky, and then I get so sleepy I have to go back to bed. Sometimes I will just lay in bed with my table lamp on and read till I fall back to sleep. Then I wake up and the book is on the floor or on me, and the lamp is still on.

I'm lucky my hubby is a very sound sleeper and it doesn't wake him. He does the same to me sometimes but I am a very light sleeper so I do wake up, but that's okay because I don't work so I can sleep in in the morning.

Yes, I do get up hungry in the middle of the night. I've started just getting something to drink instead. If I drink a lot of water or some tea, the hunger slightly abates until morning. Snacking in the middle of the night used to be a big problem for me because I was always up. Now I just get up again for drinking too much water!

No, not really. Because I have quite a fixed pattern to my life. I have timings for most things and I either make sure I am satisfactory-not-hungry before I sleep, or I will sleep with the determination that I will sleep throughout with the hunger or not. So even if I am hungry, I will just sleep myself to fullness.:P

my father had this problem and i used to do this too...but since i took Ambiem Cr the sleep med i don't wake up in the middle of the night hungry...i take this sleep med for other reasons...this is not for everyone..but it could be a symptom of hyperglycemia or another form of blood disorder...insulin resistant? have your blood work checked by a doctor..and also watch what you eat before bed time...it sounds like you have some kind of blood disorder ..either too much insulin ornot enough...but have a blood work and relay your conderns toa doctor

Hi TerryZ! Oh i usually am hungry whenever i wake up in the middle of the night. My husband usually tells me not to eat so much whenever i do and just drink a glass of milk because it's not healthy to have a full stomach when you are sleeping. Take care and have a nice day. :)

I haven't woken up because I am hungry. But if something else wakes me up I am almost ALWAYS hungry. I usually go into the kitchen and take a few bites of something before I go back to bed. I won't be able to go back to sleep if I am starving. My problem is that I stay up too late and become hungry in the middle of the night when I am playing on the computer. Then I usually eat a whole lot more than a few bites of something!

yes, this happens to me quite often because my boyfriend and i have an odd sleep schedule and i usually get up around 4am too. after being up for just a short period my stomach starts going crazy - i get so hungry! i hate it though because i don't want to eat until 7/8am or else i'll be hungry again by like 10am! haha.

Hello dear TerryZ. I am glad that I have never woken up hungry that early as you do, otherwise the nice sleep would be ruined by the hunger in the early morning. Once I wake up that early, I would find it hard to fall asleep again, which is the usual practice to me. Thanks for your discussion, dear friend. Have a good day.

Hi Terry, haha. I was just talking about this on another discussion a few days ago...and yessireee, I do wake up hungry sometimes. In fact, the other morning at 4:00 I woke up and was craving potato chips. I laid there trying so hard to go back to sleep, haha, telling myself, now Bobbie, you have to get up for work in a little while....you can't do this, haha. It didn't work. By 4:30 I was up eating a huge bowl of potato chips with of course, some hot chocolate, lol! And oohhhh, they were so good.

i think it has something to say about your health :-) please try to check :-) but if you wake up hungry, i suggest you simply drink water, it doesn't get in the way of digestion as you sleep :-)
