Or have a late lunch and skip dinner. Probably would be better for us but having dinner with the cubs is a ritual that we will not give up. Not even for the sake of our waist lines.

[Persevero]

Try on otc med like sominex

[Mr. Jeeves]

If anyone has any suggestions, it would be appreciated

If you haven't already, try a Super B Complex vitamin pill before bed.

Also, never watch TV in bed before sleep.

For example, if you eat your first bite at 9am, you must eat your last bite by 7pm at the earliest.

Fixed it!

Are you joking or do you mean at the latest?

I didn’t snore much, but, before I would wake up, I’d actually dream I was running and could not catch my breath. I’d wake up with a pounding heart and completely out of breath. I finally saw the sleep doc and the tests showed pretty severe sleep apnea. At the time, I’d never even heard of it!

Oxygen deprivation during sleep is a serious problem and causes all sorts of problems including stroke and heart attack.

Sorry!

It’s the opposite of what you are saying.

Fasting makes you less hungry.

Guess it’s not so obvious.

[steve86]

Trazadone, it is prescription but will do the job and with none of the bizarre side effects of the Z drugs.

[alexander_busek]

Are you joking or do you mean at the latest?

You are obviously very "on the ball."

Point is that "by..." is useless without the addition of "at the latest" or "at the earliest."

[steve86]

I seem to do that naturally, with no effort but am not exceptional on metrics like BMI or sleep quality (although the latter has improved immensely with trazadone).

Getting people ready for the food shortages.

Try drinking 4oz of Tart Cherry Juice about half and hour to an hour before bedtime. It’s helped me tremendously. I drink the type “not from concentrate”. It’s kind of sour tasting but easy to get used to. It costs about $4.99 for 32 ounces. I get it from Walmart.

Is somebody really claiming that going without food makes a person hungry.   smh

[ConservativeMind]

It’s the opposite.

[SaxxonWoods]

I’ve had sleep problems since I hit my 70’s. Three things have helped some. 1. Exercise (I walk, jog a little and lift a few weights. Every other month I do 3000-4000 pushups, at about 100-150 a day.) 2. I Follow my sleep patterns nightly with a fitbit. Just observing later what happens during sleep seems to help as well as telling to me that I should stop looking at the computer earlier and go to bed earlier. 3. Meditation helps but I’ve been failing to do that lately.

[SaxxonWoods]

You are on the right track, congrats.

[Blue Highway]

I do this pretty regularly. Works well and doesn’t seem hard at all.

[Bob434]

Thanks Saxxon- my folks are unable to exercise much- gettign up there in age- but they can do a little- so i will suggest that

[Bob434]

my dad takes that- been on it for awhile for not sleeping- it does help a bit- but not enough for him
