    Can you eat dinner at 5?

    If it's true hunger (not a craving), playing with mealtimes is worth a shot: eat dinner at 5 or eat lunch later? Or you could have a filling snack to tide you over until dinner: a boiled eggs? Some skyr yogurt?

    Fatigue can trigger appetite as the day rolls on. How's your sleep quality/quantity?

    Sub-par nutrition can also spike appetite, and we don't always crave the nutrients we need. Are you getting enough protein, healthy fats, veggies/fruits?

    Some people get hunger signals when under-hydrated. How's your fluid intake over the day? If your urine is darker than pale yellow, drink more water.
