I am supposed to be dieting but tonight I just got soooo hungry and ended up making a smore..then ate a green pepper with two string cheese sticks and a corn dog and a cup of orange juice. Oh man do I feel like a weirdo right now. What can I eat at night?? i mean its 2 25am and I just ate a strange meal.

ugh i get those late night snack attacks too. pepperocinis are a favorite of mine lol! i TRY to just eat some veggies, but then i end up dipping them in ranch sauce, which kind of negates the whole "less fattening snack" doesnt it? sometimes i will eat a bowl of raisin bran cereal, that seems to help. or popcorn for that matter.

That sound tasty. I know it will last for a while if I buy some because my hubby hates raisins and won't gobble up my cereal. I'll get some this weekend for sure. Thanks.

Wow! What a diet-buster! I know that I tend to go overboard when I am really, really hungry, but it really is something we should be careful of, especially when dieting. (I'm on a diet, too.) When I wake up like that, I'll usually have a bowl of cereal with 2% milk. If I'm really energetic, I'll add fruit to it. That usually satisfies me until I can get back on my regular schedule.

Oh I hate dieting, whenever I start one I want to eat twice as much as I normally do. lol You could try celery sticks and peanut butter. Thats pretty filling so you dont need to eat that much of it. My son decided he needed to diet a few months back and that was what he would eat. He tried fruits but he said they made him hungrier..lol Happy dieting !
