The Real Reason You Keep Snacking at Night

 

In this episode of The Beating Diabetes Lifestyle Podcast, I’m talking about late-night eating and why it can quietly keep your blood sugar, cravings, sleep, and weight loss progress moving in the wrong direction.

If you’ve ever told yourself, “I’m not even hungry, so why am I back in the kitchen?” this episode is for you. I break down the difference between hunger vs habit, how late-night snacking often connects to ultra-processed foods, and the simple routine changes that can help you stop eating so late without feeling deprived.

What you’ll learn:

  • What “late-night eating” really looks like in real life

  • Why it can affect morning blood sugar, cravings, and energy

  • Common triggers: stress, under-eating earlier, boredom, and staying up too late

  • My personal game-changer: how reducing TV at night helped me stop mindless eating

  • A practical Late-Night Eating Battle Plan you can start tonight

Quick Battle Plan (high level)

  • Set a “kitchen closed” time

  • Eat a satisfying dinner (protein + non-starchy veggies + healthy fats)

  • Replace the night routine

  • Create a planned “emergency option”

  • Fix the root issue: late nights and poor sleep

If this helped you, share it with someone who needs encouragement and a simple plan.
