i try to reach for fruit. something like an apple or 1/4 of a medium sized cantaloupe. it is filling but is not heavy.

For some reason, a few crackers and a small glass of milk at night.

A bowl of Kashi GoLean Crunch with skim milk. Any cereal is my comfort food!

Sliced lean deli turkey and hard boiled egg whites do the trick for me!

Snack Ideas
The only time I remember getting hungry in the middle of the night was during a Slow and Heavy rotation! Protein is what I craved for sure. I am not a big meat eater in general, but I could not get enough of it during my first Slow and Heavy rotation. I could not get enough sleep either, but that is another story.
I do keep some nutritious snacks on hand in case I want to munch on something late at night. I keep a bowl of raw vinegar in the refrigerator with cucumber slices in it. I am a lover of anything sweet or sour, and the strong flavor satisfies my taste buds without any real calorie damage. It instantly ends any desire to overeat as well.
I also cut ripe bananas into bite-size chunks, stick a toothpick in each one, freeze, frost with natural peanut butter, and freeze again. I love the ice cream texture, and one bite-size piece satisfies me if I savor it. Frozen strawberries, blueberries, and grapes are good too. I either go for something with a strong flavor (like the cucumber slices in raw vinegar) or something that is frozen and requires me to slow down and savor every bite. I avoid mindless grazing at any cost (especially late at night).
Blessings,
Heather B.

If I stay up late I almost always have to have a snack. I eat a salad, or cottage cheese with a few raisins, on the protein drink I fill my Magic bullet with 1/2 cup milk then almost to the top with ice,add protien powder and General Foods Decaf sugar free mocha cappucino, then water, I blend blend this and it is thick like ice cream and then I eat it with a spoon.

Have you tried the GNC PM Protein shake. It has 40g of protein in it and is like you have a brick in your stomach. It will fill you up. Also add some yogurt in there as well, and don't tell me that your not full then! LOL! Try it!

If I wake up, or literally can't sleep because I'm hungry - if it means I actually have to get out of bed - then I grab whatever I can get my hands on. Usually peanut butter toast because it's quick and filling. If it's just a late nigt snack and I'm still up, then I'll do something like fruit, cottage cheese, or maybe a nut/fruit mix, depending on how much fat I've had during the day.

l/f cottage cheese with sweetener and vanilla extract or with sugar free syrup......pretty good if you have a sweet tooth.

Definitely cereal!
I find myself getting up in the middle of the night plenty of times to eat a bowl of cereal. It's more insomnia than it is hunger, but it helps to go back to sleep with a fully stomach!
