What do I do? I have terrible problems with insomnia and I get so so hungry during the night. The problem is that I cant get to sleep in the first place, and then the hunger makes it impossible! I usually have bowl of raisin wheats with skimmed milk and that does the trick but I would rather eat nothing like normal people...
Any tips?

PS. Tried, hot baths, reading, lavender, herbal sleeping remedies.... some times I can get to sleep and I wake up hungry...

:ohwell:

    Are you eating enough during the day?
    Try to eat something light as a snack about 3 hours before bedtime. I will eat a cracker with 1 tbsp. peanut butter or apple. Keeps me full all night. Try it.

    Depending on the calories you have left if any, a great late might snack is cottage cheese and a piece of celery...the protein in cottage cheese is a different kind that digests slowly and it is low carbs...so if you must have something late...stay away from high carbs
    good luck

    Thanks for the tips. I'll try to put them into practice this week!
    Cottage cheese is a revelation. It pretty much goes with everything I love it! Especially the pineapple stuff..
