How Do You Stop Night Cravings?
Most of the time, you overeat at night because you are actually hungry. So the fix starts earlier in the day.
Eat more during the day
If you are under-eating until dinner, your body collects on it at 9 pm. Hit your protein and fiber goals, get a good variety of foods for micronutrients, and the evening gets a lot quieter.
Plan the snack
Here is the thing: it is not a surprise. It happens every night. So plan for it. Program a nighttime snack into your macros, say at 8 pm, and let it be part of the day instead of a failure.
Keep the house honest
Keep only things at home that you would feel proud to eat. If it is not there, you cannot grab it on autopilot.
Some snack ideas:
- Yogurt or skyr
- Low calorie, high protein ice cream treats
- Oatmeal
- A couple of eggs
- A slice of whole grain bread with a little nut butter
- Fruit
Aim for minimally processed, with some protein, fiber, and real nutrition in it.
