    Depend on what mood I'm in. If I need something with an actual texture and can be chewed and swallows, I'd go for a boiled egg. If I need something cold and ice cream like, then greek yogurt. If I need chocolate I'd make sugar free hot cocoa.

    I have been having a ritual lately of hitting up 7-11 and getting a soft pretzel and a sugar free Slurpee. Surprisingly, the sugar free Slurpees are delicious and only 60 calories for a medium!

    Ya know, so you don't dive face first into ice cream or a bowl of cereal at 11 PM!

    Going to bed works.

    As much as I love my proper scrambled eggs done exactly to my specific method, my go-to at night would be microwaved scrambled eggs with toast. Less that 2mins to make and it might just be the thing that stops me having a snack made of chocolate!

    I have a few spoonfuls of cottage cheese, or if I'm pretty hungry then I will have 1/2 cup of cottage cheese. It's full of protein so it makes me feel satisfied longer so I don't go to bed feeling hungry. Plus I heard that it's good for weight loss and building muscle!

    It's not true that the brain can only run on carbs. It runs very well on ketone bodies. Fiber gets broken down into short chain fatty acids, which are then converted by the liver to ketone bodies, which then fuel the brain.

    As for my fix, I like coconut oil, almond butter, and 100% cocoa powder mixed together. Sometimes I mix in pumpkin seeds or sunflower seeds, throw it in the freezer, and in 45 minutes I have no-sugar candy bar.

    1 bag of microwave popcorn and a Miller Lite (386 cals). Great with a ball game on.

    A banana (100 cals) with a teaspoon of peanut butter on every bite (about 9 teaspoons = 3 tablespoons = 285 cals) Yum! (385 all together).

    a handful of frozen berries heated up in the microwave, topped with a couple of tablespoons of sheep yogurt (and sometimes some almonds, desiccated coconut, honey).

    What do you consider a snack? Also - what are you doing when you snack? When I want to snack at night, I do my best to try to change up whatever I am doing (even if it is to chase my hubby down and massage his feet - no kidding) - breaking late night routines are good for killing the "need" to eat. If not then the snack depends on preference. I avoid processed snacks, so I would suggest a hydrating fruit like an orange, or melon. If you seek crunch, consider some nuts or maybe make your own apple crisps and save for when you need to gnosh. A can of spinach with a little vinegar is awesome, and about 75 calories for the whole can.
