so, here's a thing: I pretty routinely get food cravings late at night. being a night-owl, I always figured this was something to do with my circadian rhythms being all messed up - like, even though I'd had a full day's worth of food, my body hadn't always registered it.

and the rest of the time, I have the tablet and just... forget that I wanted food. because I wasn't actually hungry in the first place; my brain was just yelling at me to Give It The Thinky Sugar. and now I can, and it's AWESOME.

There's also an adrenal aspect to this since our bodies don't normally produce much cortisol at night and cortisol is part of how glucose enters cells. But also if you have too much cortisol it signals your body to eat to store energy.

Anyway your body responds to a lot of things with hunger
