    If I’m a bit peckish shortly before meals and bedtime, I feel like I’m doing it right. Ironically, if I go to bed a little hungry, I’m not hungry the next day until 10-11am. When I go to bed full, I wake famished. Weird, huh? Mentally, I “close the kitchen” after dinner, and after establishing that as a habit, it has been easier to stick to it.

    So one part of dealing with pangs, for me, is accepting that a little hunger is natural and not problematic for people who are healthy and generally get decent nutrition. The bigger part of dealing with pangs, though, is eating at an appropriate calorie level (I.e. not an excessive deficit for unsustainably fast loss) and covering nutrition bases. It really saves so much effort and frustration in the long run when you make that extra effort to determine the right calorie goal at the start. Good luck, OP!
