Late night snacking?

[Heatman]

I have this habit of always waking up late in the night and eating snacks. It doesn't mean that I'm hungry but it's something that my body started craving recently. Last night, I woke up around 2:30 AM and had some cookies.

Who else experiences such?

Habit. Bad habit. Very occasionally now, maybe twice a year I'll wake up during the night and just have to have something to eat.
I think I broke that habit by having a nice drink of ice water & getting back to bed.

I snack because of the munchies. I need to figure out a way to curb this damn habit.

Maybe another thing that helps, I brush my teeth right before going to bed; if I wake up in the night thinking, "food"......I think about the time I spent brushing & water flossing & don't want to do that all over in the middle of the nite & I don't want to "mess up" my teeth either.

I usually keep a bottles of water next to my bed. I just chug one of those and I am good.

I used to do it all of the time until it started making me sick to my stomach and I'd have to throw up.

Yup, used to do it all the time as a kid/teenager. I do it still as an adult but less so.

I have the same habit. I've been a little less bad with it but still do. Though its usually not anything like super heavy...mostly.

It helps that my bedroom is upstairs and the kitchen is downstairs. I don't want to make the trek up and down the stairs in the middle of the night for snacks.

Except yogurt is all sugar.
