"Don't eat too close to bed time...

TheFountain's Photo TheFountain 16 Jun 2016

Every time I take the suggestion of not eating too close to bed time I wake up in the middle of the night with a growling stomach. 

 

Why do people recommend not eating that close to bed time if somebody is going to have interrupted sleep due to hunger pangs iu n the middle of the night? 

 

And to give an idea of what I ate at about 7 pm (having gone to bed at 11ish) it was two giant chicken leg quarters from my local Ralphs that more than filled me up at the time. It's heavy, low carb and high in healthy fats. 

 

But I seem to have the issue of, if I do not eat a ton of food prior to bed, like 1-2 hours prior, i'm waking up hungry at about 4-5 am. 

 

I even took some melatonin on top of it!
