Just wondering if anyone else is having this problem. I don't know why but Ill wakeup around 3-4am and Im so hungry that I cant go back to sleep and i usually have a snack before bed. What gives?? I swear I eat enough, my diary is open so feel free to give me any insights or tips!

    Maybe try to make your last meal/snack of the day low in sugar/carbs. I find that when I eat sugar/carbs(even when fairly heathy ones) I tend to wake up hungry. If my last meal is higher in protein/fat/fiber that doesn't happen.

    It is also possible that you do need to eat more altogether, so your body is telling you it's hungry. I do see you eat and it's not super low but if you are active your body might just be asking for even more fuel.

    I have to have bedtime snack or I wake up mid night hungry and dizzy. Protein and whole grains usually.

    I guess that depends on your definition of "super low." I'm seeing nets in the 800s. OP, eat more. That's what your body is telling you. Your daily goal is 1500. This week, apart from Monday, you haven't been netting anywhere close to that.
