Waking up Hungry

Lately I have been waking up very hungry. I used to be able to just drink my coffee and not eat until noon. Now I feel like I am starving when I wake up and my stomach is making a lot of noise. Do you wake up hungry and if so what causes it?

Hi, This happens to me when I eat before I go to bed. I try not to eat before bed so I don't wake up starving! Do you eat before you sleep?

No I never eat right before bed because I have acid reflux and that would keep me up all night.

If you eat before going to bed, I believe your stomach keeps busy all night. Try to remember what you had to eat any time after supper and don't repeat it any time soon. That should do the trick.

sometimes I wake up hungry I find it is hormones, round about the time I get my period or used to because I hardly get them now.

I generally only wake up hungry if I go to bed without any supper so, sorry I can't help you as to why you are

There were times that I experience this too. Mostly because I have eaten less than the usual amount of food than I am used to the evening before. I am not sure if that's the reason but that's my observation.

I don't wake up hungry,mines is reversed.. If I stay up late I am steadily trying to find something to eat or snack on. When I wake up in the mornings I can get me a cup of coffee and I am alright until about 11:30 or 12:00 mid day. Then I have to make myself eat.
