    OP, same thing happens to me when I’m in too much of a calorie deficit. I can’t fall asleep because I’m too hungry. Sometimes it doesn’t even feel like hunger, it just feels like restlessness. I usually sleep pretty easily and so if I’m tired and can’t sleep, I get up and have a granola bar. Then I fall asleep.

    This is exactly how I feel. My legs are really restless. Once I have a carb, it stops. So weird.
