having some meal before sleep is not good, but it is hard for me to sleep with empty stomach. Anyone can help me? DO you have the same problem?

No my dear I have a habit of a sleep without food but if you can't do the same then have some fruits or cornflakes with milk but don't go for heavy meals.

I don't before sleep.I usually eat couple of hours before sleep because i am conscious with my figure they say that eating before sleeping will make me fat so i not use to it. Eat your dinner seven in the evening and sleep 9 or 10 in the evening you wont feel the starving i think.Just use to it and your stomach will be adjusted.Keep it up!happy posting.

I usually have a snack before bed because I take medication that I have to eat with. A snack is ok, I think, but a big meal is probably not a good idea. Some foods, like milk or starchy carbs, help your brain to release seratonin and can help you fall asleep. I read that somewhere. I usually have a bowl of cereal with some milk or a pb&j with a glass of milk. Do you find that you wake up during the night because you are hungry? Even if you don't want to eat right before bed, you could try a snack an hour or two before. Hope this helps!

I don't sleep at once after eating dinner. Sometimes I get hungry but when I don't give in to the feeling I can get over it quite well. Cheers!!

Hello! It is our habit to eat two to three hours before we hit the bed because sleeping soon after dinner may upset your digestive system.If you feel hungry before going to bed than you may take some fruits like apple or grapes which will satisfy your hunger and at the same time benefit your health.thanx.

I have the same problem. I cannot sleep if I am hungry. Thats why I try not to eat immediately before I go to sleep, but around two hours before. It does help. I can fall asleep easier this way.

I eat when I want. It doesn't disturb my sleep if I eat before I go to bed. It's more comfortable to go to bed with a full stomach rather than with an empty stomach.
