Have a REALLY filling dinner, with plenty of protein and fat.
Then brush your teeth and don't eat anything for 3 hours before you go to bed. I have done this for years... and now if i eat or drink something besides water in the window, I realize how terrible I feel while sleeping. I also sometimes feel a bit hungry when I'm falling asleep, but then I wake up without hunger -- my body has burned fat for energy. A good thing! |

+1 a cup of herbal tea helps me not snack. Also, I started crocheting while I watch TV so my hands are busy. |

| I use a fasting app for this. Set the fast right after dinner and don’t cheat! I have seltzer or hot tea to relax. |

Maybe a healthy snack at work
And dinner as soon as you get home? |

+2, my best discovery was that I can pop kernels in a brown paper bag in the microwave. |

Same, I like to have a cup of mint or apple tea at night in the winter, or an icy glass of seltzer in the summer. |

Your body still needs something it didn’t get earlier in the day:
Protein? Fat? Hydration? What do you think you’re missing? |

I had this problem.
I don’t eat after 8:30pm. I have an alarm set on my phone. The “don’t eat after dinner” didn’t work for me because the time fluctuated too much. |

You are eating to relax and it is a habit.
