I'm hungry but can't eat

I had supper at supper time and it's after 1 am now and hungry. I can't eat because I am mostly immobile. I'll be glad when I get paid on Monday because I can have sugar free Popsicles and fudge sickles. I drink water but it doesn't help take the acid burn away.

I'm sorry, is there any way to have something nearby for when you get hungry?

I have babas and oranges now. I will keep a couple of snacks from now on. It gets hard when we get short, but I hope not to get short this month. Some nights I just want toast and jam or fruit.

@Carmelanirel2 I ate an orange and banana last night and had gate raise. It helped. I will continue with fruit at night as long as I have it.

@OreoBrownie Fruit is a good, I tend to crave the bad stuff like chocolate. 
But I try to make sure I eat well most of the time.

Pineapple helps when I have acid reflux. I hope you get foods that you can have for snacks.

I don't have pineapple. I got acid pain again after taking my meds. I ate a fudge sickle but it didn't help so I am sucking on a mint and that is helping. Thanks for the heads up on that though. I will get some when I can.

@OreoBrownie Oh, and someone else reminded me that kiwi has the same enzyme that helps with acid reflux. A kiwi may be easier to manage.

Well, eating has become something of a chore to me lately. I am trying to get back on track with my diet and I am having a slightly hard time of it. Being diabetic is not always fun. But I am managing the best I can. Staying away from those awesome carbs like bread and pasta are the hardest for me.

I hear you about the carbs. I still eat them but less often. I did have sweet and sour chicken on rice tonight though. I eat more fruits when I have them.

@OreoBrownie Well, I just cannot have the crabs or the fruits. I am not on medication for my diabetes, so I have to stay away.

Acid burn... that sounds pretty awful! Rolaids won't help?? It's the first thing that popped into my mind!
