How to Break a NightTime Snacking habit
How to break a nighttime snacking habit:
Make sure you’re not hungry from undereating during the day. If you skipped a meal or did a hard workout, your body may be asking for more fuel.
If you are actually hungry, eat a healthy snack!
If you’re not… try brewing yourself a calming cup of herbal tea. This can help you relax and it feels like a treat.
Or brush your teeth. This can send a signal to your body that you’re done eating for the day.
Still not satisfied? Get to the root cause of your snack habit! Take inventory of how you feel. Many times we snack because we are bored… stressed… lonely… or sad.
Sometimes simply acknowledging that it’s not really about the food can help.
Go to bed early. When you get enough sleep, it helps your body balance your hunger hormones.
