I'm terrible for staying up too late and I'm wondering if I get enough quality sleep. Does anyone else think about this? What time doe you switch out the light and how long does it take you to drop off?

Well my thinking is, if I don't have a good sleeping routine my digestion system slows right down and like a few of you this had happened since starting SW. Might ease up on the carbs for the next few days as I really would love a lose this week![]()

I've been drinking more water since starting as the more fibre you eat the more fluids you should drink (according to my consultant) and I'm up 2 or 3 times a night....in the end I suppose it'll be worth it and hope my body adjusts!
You've done great by the way. Congrats![]()

Bedtime for me is about 9.30 or 10 on a weekday and about an hour later at the weekends. Never could stay up late! Often asleep on the sofa before this.
Lost 2 stone 11lbs!
