I would guess your water intake is not high enough.

Eat some green vegetables. Drink lots of water as someone else said.

Greens are good and are negative calories, Do you take a multivitamin?

Most people get "hunger" pains when in fact they are simply not hydrated enough.

Depending on your stats, I would at least drink 1 gallon a day.

Yeh water intake makes a big difference, also if drinking cold water it takes calories to drink that FYI.
I drink between 1-2 gallons a day.
I just carry a 1 liter pepsi or coke bottle around since it is 50fl ounces and a gallon is 128 figure 2 1/2 of those get you to a gallon, but you will be pissing alot, space out your water intake all day, not within 4 hours.

Quick guide to make sure you are drinking enough water:

1. Pissing every 40-45 minutes
2. It's as clear as water
3. See #1

Whenever I wake up in the middle of the night it is usually for something sweet....I can't tell you how many times I have got up in the morning with an empty coke next to the bed and don't remember drinking it..... What I do now is take 5-10g of glutamine with water or sometimes a small shot of OJ. I hardly have any cravings these days. Glutamine helps with sweet cravings, I sh!t you not!
