To Eat on Not To Eat.

This is my dilemma right now. You see it's 3:49 am, I'm wide awake because I need to do a toilet trip. My tummy suddenly growls at me. It's very appealing to eat, however, I'm not used to eating at this time of the day or night. Do you give in to hunger pangs you feel in the middle of the night?

I might have them before bed, but not in the middle of the night. Sorry you're going through that dilemma. I don't know what I would do, maybe I'd eat something if I decide to stay up. Drinking is out of question as that leads to more toilet trips you might not want.

@rakski Morning, then a light brunch, lunch, evening snack and in the night wind up by a boiled egg and hot milk - I do sometimes pick a chocolate or two

There are times when l feel hunger pangs as early as 10 pm. My last meal is around 4 pm and it is usually very light. When they occur l ignore them and go back to sleep.

Your dinner time is early maybe that is why you feel hungry by 10pm

only if my stomach is upset and I think eating something might help. I usually wait until morning though.

It's been a long time that I do not eat after dinner. I avoid eating after that, the midnight snack and all.

I never get hungry so I don't eat through the night. So did you eat something?

I am tempted to eat during the middle of the night but due to health reasons I learned to say no to eating something.

It has not happened with me at such odd hours. Yes, on Friday nights I watch TV till late night, almost 2 AM. I start feeling hungry around midnight and I will snack on roasted peanuts and cashews , I take a handful of them.

### To Eat or Not to Eat in the Wee Hours of the Morning In the quiet solitude of the wee hours of the morning, the choice between indulgence and restraint often arises. With my daytime eating habits being quite light, my stomach occasionally growls in response to the absence of nourishment. When this happens, I find comfort in something simple yet satisfying, like a bowl of fresh fruit paired with creamy Greek yogurt. This light snack not only appeases my hunger but also allows me to embrace the stillness of the early hours without overindulging.

That is a good and light snack to eat in the middle of the night. But I try not to eat at those times. I do practice fasting, the least I can do is fast 12-14 hours at night which I usually do after dinner

I have started the 16:8 fasting so I would have to just drink a glass of water and go back to bed.

I'm practicing fasting to. I started out at 14:10, then I extended it to 16:8 when I'm comfortable already
