Hi all! I'm new to the IP protocol, but not this website, and I've loved reading all of the informative posts on this forum!

Question, last night, I had a protein shake (Premier Protein, 30g) right before bed. I woke up STARVING!!!! Is this normal or should I try having the protein shakes an hour or two before bed?

I apologize if this question has been asked before.

Thanks in advance!!!

I've noticed that if I eat right before bed I also wake up starving. Try having your shake 2 hours before bed and see if it makes a difference.

How long ago did you start the IP diet?? I know I was starving in the first few days, it take a while to adjust but it will. Also it would be a good idea to not eat right before bed I agree with ragdoll74, try it 2 hrs before bed.

I do 30 mins before bed and I am good.

Thank you for your responses.

I started on 3/26 so only been on for a few days. I'll try to have my last shake a couple hours before bed and see if the starvation goes away. LOL!

Thanks again.
