my trick is to up my water in take during night time and my last meal is to eat tuna right off the can that usually kills my appetite cuz its so nasty lmfao!!!
You said you tried IF - I second that idea! Give it another go? I find that it's harder for me to restrain myself when not doing IF because "just one snack" at 9pm before bed turns into about 5 on the wrong night. I also think that if you drink water like people said - but I use seltzer water. It's fizzy! I dare you to drink two of them in a sitting, you probably cant. The bubbles fill up your stomach, you won't wanna eat a thing
Fasting is the best!! Honestly I can't deal with the grey area of can I eat or
Not eat right now when I'm cutting...I feel when it's maintenance it's fine not to fast because our calories are higher so less likely to overdo it. Also I notice with fasting IF I stop getting crazy hunger pangs after the first hour or so hunger.
have you been checked to see if you are diabetic? Sounds like one reason could be 2hrs later your blood sugar drops triggering hunger.
If you are at 3 gallons a day do not go higher than that on water. There have been cases where someone died from extreme water intake. It can hose up your electrolytes.
I live in Texas workout in a Wharhouse with no ac I need every bit of that water lol
I hit two a days lift them cardio so I'm drenched after those lol
As far as blood sugar that's a good idea to check it
I am doing better but shit it's hard
I've been doing a lot of reading and they say hormonal imbalance is in hormonal flux causes hunger
It's crazy cut is like clockwork no matter what time I go to bed typically about nine or 10 o'clock I wake up at midnight on the dot every night and have to eat something
I've cut it back from a bowl of oats Copena butter and jelly sandwich now I'm just with one protein shake and I'm in a try to move it back to BCAAS
But it's strange because right when I wake up I crave healthy fats or carbs that's all I want to eat oats peanut butter you name it sometimes I can get a lot of cottage cheese in just a bunch of fruit in there but at the same time I wind up hammer and 1500 cal in a matter of 10 minutes
Normally my body craves things I need but at the same time I'm getting plenty of carbs and plenty of fat strap the day I'm wondering if it's some kind of allergic reaction I've also read food your allergic to sometimes you can Crave
There could be a multiple array of things going on here I'm just not quite sure yet I just find it funny that I wake up at the same time every night wanting to eat
I'm still lean as hell still see them gains but at the same time to get shredded that's is just a unacceptable diet plan
