How to get rid of the habit of eating before bedtime? Everyone knows that food eaten less than 3 hours before bedtime quickly turns into body fat. Here are 15 ways to deal with late meals , written specifically for midnight hungry people.

• Drink a glass of water (preferably warm) with lemon or kiwi juice. Green tea is also suitable. Filling the stomach, the fluid dulls the feeling of hunger . You can also drink a glass of juice, but not fresh, but fresh fresh juice. The better option is vegetables, such as celery. You should know that drinking a lot of fluids late at night is not desirable because they cause dark circles under the eyes. Therefore, this advice should be followed up to 1 hour before bedtime.
• You can do a light physical warm-up. Thus, the brain will be fully engaged in this task and will forget about food. Heavy exercise is not suitable for the late evening hours, because it will "drink" your strength and cause insomnia.
• If you love scents, smell your favorite perfume or oils with a fruity scent or the scent of flowers, light scented candles or just inhale the scent of grapefruit peel. This should help - the brain centers responsible for smell and hunger are "neighbors". Satisfying one of them will dull the needs of the other for a while.
• Take a hot bath. You can add sea salt or a few drops of essential oils. This reduces appetite , relaxes and has a beneficial effect on the quality of sleep.
• A walk before bed - it helps you just forget about eating, but with the clarification that you should not stop at the shop or cafe you pass by to buy something to eat. In winter, this method does not help, because the cold air only sharpens the appetite.
• Do not add spices to dishes prepared for dinner - they excite the appetite.
• Do not eat carrots and cabbage in the evening, because they lead to the desire to eat something more serious.
• Try not to have high-calorie food in front of your eyes, because when you see it, it will be harder for you to resist it. It will be even better if you do not keep harmful products at home, if at all possible.
• Attach a personal special list in a prominent place, in which you can enter everything you want to give up. This applies not only to food, but also to habits and everything you do not need. Always look at it when you are about to disobey your decision. Such a written reminder will help you refrain.
• Paste a picture of the refrigerator. The options can be different: a very full woman - the kind you certainly do not want to become in any case, or vice versa - a slender girl with a perfect figure, which you aspire to.
• Keep the jeans or dress you want to wear in a prominent place. This will be another reason not to "part" with the restrictions.
• Brush your teeth. Your habit and upbringing will not allow you to eat after that. Proven method.
• Ask the people you live with not to tempt you with delicious food or start living a healthy lifestyle together.
• These tips are useful if you are not hungry, but just want to eat something. If you are really very hungry, do not suffer from starvation : eat a skim natural yogurt, apple or other fruit, a few nuts or a few raisins.
• If you go to bed at 12 at night, you will hardly be able not to eat after 18:00, it is normal to be hungry. Just eat 2-3 hours before bed - that's enough.
