Have you ever.....

Have you ever woken up in the middle of the night with excruciating hunger pains? I woke up at 2am so incredibly hungry, I felt like I hadnt eaten in a week! Everytime I rolled over my stomach tightened and I actually thought (half asleep) that if I didnt get to the fridge in time I was going to wither up and die from hunger. But I like to sleep more then I like to eat so my lazy butt just tried to ignore it, and by the time I woke up I was no longer very hungry.

Has this happened to anyone else?

That happens to me all the time! I have to have a snack before bed or I will wake up really hungry. Even when I have a snack right before bed, I still wake up hungry!

Have you had your blood sugar checked? If you have low blood sugar you will feel starved.

You should make an appointment with your doctor to check you for diabetes.

This has never happened to me, and I can't even imagine it. I can't eat when I wake up - the thought of food before I'm awake for several hours turns my stomach, so I totally can't relate to waking up hungry, ever.

welcome to my world! I'm always hungry!!!!! I have to eat 6 small healthy meals a day.

Sometimes I wake up starving but that usually happens when I eat a high carb meal before bed.

Hmmm, thats a thought. Are potatoes high in carbs? LOL

Thats actually what I ate last night. I hadnt eaten all day because we were painting and when I finally did eat around 6-7ish I had a bunch of mashed potatoes and a piece of baked chicken
