Nice. :)I am properly tired around 10pm and sleep through the night without waking or needing to pee.
I completely agree with you. But what if I am never hungry?eat when you're hungry
simple isn't it
I relate this with you so much. Seriously, sometimes before sleeping, hearing and feeling my heart beating so strongly makes me feel uneasy. However, I am trying to always eat something before bedtime, because (I believe? believed?) it is said that it is actually healthier rather than not eating anything. But of course, well, it is always the same dilemma: some say that you should eat more at dinner rather at lunch - huge dinner + snack before bed; and others say the exact opposite - eat during the day + no snack before bed.pounding heart making it hard to fall asleep
That's probably because our needs differ. For me, I aim to eat as much as I can be hungry for in the morning-lunchtime, and in the evening eat as much I need to be able to sleep through the night and wake up ready for breakfast. Sometimes I get it right.But of course, well, it is always the same dilemma: some say that you should eat more at dinner rather at lunch - huge dinner + snack before bed; and others say the exact opposite - eat during the day + no snack before bed.
I have been playing around with this. The improvements from Peat have been incredible, but I've always struggled a little with getting to sleep or waking in the early hours of the morning (and I am sure this is related to my menstrual cycle as well as other factors).
For the past few weeks I have been eating my protein with loads of fruit/ honey/ caffeine etc before 3-4pm, and after that I just sip on a little OJ, pomegranate juice or coconut water (even better, all three combined!). I have kept up the considerable amount of salt during the daytime, but now stop after 4pm. I walk a fair distance to yoga class every other evening and this hasn't affected my performance as long as I have a bit of juice with me. I am properly tired around 10pm and sleep through the night without waking or needing to pee.
I do still keep a small glass of salted OJ on my bedside for when I first wake up around sunrise, I seem to need it then.
Having tried just about all the other dietary suggestions for sleep, I am hoping this approach continues to work for me!
Can you expand on this please? I don’t feel hunger the same way when comparing night time to day time.It depends when you ate dinner, how big your dinner was, and your thyroid/liver state. People who store glycogen efficiently can go the first half of the day without eating, and the same applies for sleep.
