Do You Have Opinions On Eating Before Bed?

July 28, 2022

So, I saw a Tik Tok the other day (I know – always a tik tok haha) where this guy, for 30 days, is starting a new tiny habit each day to come up with a better routine.

[I’m trying to find it, but I can’t right now. But if I run across it, I will update this, or if you know, let me know! 

(So, like, for instance, one day, he started not sleeping with his phone in his room. Another day, he took a 10-minute walk outside to start the day, and on and on.)

And I really love watching people do 30-day-habits. I think they’re really interesting! I used to LOVE Matt Cuts’ blog back in the day when he did that. So, anytime this guy’s been on my FYP, I’ve thought it was pretty cool.

And, over the pandemic, as much as I tried not to slip on habits and things I ultimately got to some places I didn’t want to be, in some ways.

(E.g. I think I could potentially have some healthier brain habits and some healthier physical habits too.)

So, /i’ve been wondering if maybe I should do my own 30-days thing. And I’m not really positive if that’s what I want to do, per se.

But I have, in general, over the last week been being healthier in general – working out, at least a little, everyday. Eating a little better. Etc.

Anyway, last night, I ended up eating really close to bedtime, and this morning, I woke up and my stomach hurt a little. And I wondered, “oh, should I make it a thing in my life that I try not to eat before bed? I was feeling so good in the mornings the past nights I didn’t do that.”

So, then I looked it up – if not eating before bed is better for you. And the first result was from Cleveland Clinic, and it was like “don’t eat three hours before bed.”

Okay, simple, done.

But then other things are saying you are supposed to? But i feel like you’re not?

I’m sure it’s probably just whatever makes you feel better (or whatever a real doctor you trust says).

But yeah, maybe I’ll give that a go, since I think it actually will make me feel a little better. Maybe I’ll do a mini-personal-experiment.

Anyway, that’s all I got for today! 

Talk to you tomorrow!

I'd love to hear from you! So whaddya say?
