    Sometimes I put myself in a sensory deprivation chamber and focus on the hunger

    Other times I have a snack

    Umm.. eat. Why be hungry if you're ACTUALLY hungry and not just bored?

    I have the same problem :P I usually have a lot of extra calories though so I usually drink a cup of almond milk mixed with a scoop of protein powder. It usually does a pretty good job of filling me up and it's still healthy (:

    I space my meals all day long so that my last meal is just before bedtime.

    i have looked at many other sites. I will try to stay closer to the limit. Its hard to think that i need to eat more. Thats what brought me to this site in the first place...

    Yes. I've heard people like you say that a million times. What got you here was eating ABOVE your TDEE. I want you to eat at a deficit, but not at so large of one that it causes your problems and makes you stall. There is a healthier way to do it.

    I have a glass of vanilla soy milk or yogurt. Its not too heavy before you go to bed and it is satisfying :):drinker:

    I try to eat something high protein before bed. I use to think that if I went to bed hungry I would sleep and forget about it, but the opposite would happen -- I wouldn't rest well because I was hungry. Eating some small high protein thing helps me rest well.

    I have a snack to at least scare off the tummy rumbles.
    I don't eat a full meal and go to bed, but I'll have a piece of whole fruit or mayben even a piece of low cal bread with a piece of turkey and a pickle rolled up in it or a few crackers.. you get the idea.

    If I don't eat something, I'll go back to bed, and then get up later and binge on chips or something else terrible for me. :p

    I try to have something mid evening a piece of fruit, some popcorn, some nuts and a big glass of water. That way I never go to bed hungry.
