Do you get enough sleep (at least 7 hours a night)?

Do you avoid eating in a hurry, directly from a bag in the kitchen, in bed or on the couch?

Do you avoid eating while watching TV, surfing the internet or playing video games?

Have you ever wondered why you eat late at night; is it because you are hungry or are you actually sad, stressed, and tired or maybe you are just bored?

Common conclusions

Based on your answers, there are several other ways that can help you stop eating late at night. It is very important not to skip meals, because if, for example, you skip lunch, it is quite normal that you will be hungrier in the evening. You need to eat well-balanced meals that will provide you with a sufficient amount of nutrients. Protein can help you feel full for longer. You should avoid light meals if you still feel hungry after eating. When you feel hungry late at night, try to drink a glass of water first because your body can sometimes mix the signs of hunger and thirst.
