That is usually the same time of evening I start to have cravings too! I'll usually leave a 100-200 calorie cushion so I can have a TBS or two of peanut butter or some almonds. I love PB so I always look forward to that little treat in the evening!!0

i usually get cravings around 2am... i should really jst go to bed earlier :P0

ugh I'm having the exact problem right now, it's always just before bed! I have a cup of tea and/or: pitta and hummus, apple slices and peanut butter or a weetabix with some skim milk and honey. The pitta and hummus aren't particularly low-cal but it's better than getting through a whole pack of biscuits in a few hours!0

put in fridge. wait till chilled. eat. just as healthy as peanut butter, 10000x the deliciousness.0 -
So many great ideas!! Thanks for sharing!!0

Oh man definite the worst for me I eat so very well in the morning and afternoon having very good control over diet and exercise and come closer to bed time I become a ravaging troll ripping through my fridge for something to satisfy my hunger but i found that eating a handful of hemp hearts(very high protein and fiber) or some spirulina/seaweed mix (crazy amount of vitamins,minerals)- my body calms down after getting the straight up nutrition and protein is needs without the extra calories.0

Hmmm... that reminds me. This stuff is to die for! Awesome with pretzels, apples, celery, and no nuts for those with allergies. It's actually 54% ground up cookies. You know Biscoff Cookies, those little snack packs you get when you fly Delta...
Slightly fewer calories and fat then peanut butter, but very little protein. Definitely an indugence, but mmmmmmmmmmmm.....

So yesterday while preparing a turkey burger for my son, I made quiches from the 2 left over patties. I calculated the asparagus, tomato, 8 eggs, and the 2 turkey patties for 12 servings and they came out to 81 calories per muffin! I ate one of those at 8:30 and i was good! the saltiness of the patty and filling airiness of the eggs was perfect!0

I always make sure I save some calories because I can't stand to go to bed hungry. I also try to eat something that has protein or healthy fat so I get filled up.0

It's 2am, I just got back from a concert in SF. I had a tomato avocado sammich on wheat with some wheat bites. Hopefully that'll hold me off till breakfast :b0

Wow now that's self control! after a concert and drinking I want junk! great job0 -
I start getting hungry just about every day around 8:30 p.m. But then, since dinner is usually only 30-45 min away I consider it a good thing.0

Mine is much earlier but yes! Drink a glass of water. Don't have unhealthy foods in your house for a temptation. It sets you up for failure as you will eventually eat it. Pre plan perhaps what you eat because usually if you wait until last minute, bad choices are too easy.0

Yep I'm hungry but I usually have dinner at 8.300
-
all the time! i eat fruits which are decently filling (or popcorn). and when i fall off my diet, whatever is lying around.0

Does anyone fall victim to the 8:30pm craves? Every night just around this same time i get "hungry". I'm not really hungry i just want to eat something! I always make stupid choices like cereal or a bowl of ice cream. Does anyone have healthy ( low-sugar/carb) alternatives? HELP!
Every night. That's why I save enough calories from the day to have something - which for me is usually about a dozen dark chocolate chips and a very small glass of wine. Best calories of the day, lemme tellya.0 -
Usually like 4-5 boiled eggs will do the trick, but not always.0
