I am starting to think maybe Kelj and the post she made about "starvation being the biggest stressor" we face being true. Maybe I'm going down the rabbit hole of Gwyneth Olywn now lol. The only difference is I still adamantly believe certain foods are terrible for us, just that maybe there's something to increasing calories until the stress response to hunger goes away? Clearly, that's what is happening at night, I'm running out of food, and then FFA's get released which completely demolish my metabolism. What other explanation is there considering my dinner was less calories than normal by a large factor (50%)? I also noted that I woke up WAY earlier than normal the first time at night than I normally do. All signs seem to be pointing to starvation / insufficient calories now that I've had my coffee and can mentally function this morning lol.
