How Much Sleep Do You Get?

  • Not sure. On the days I workout, I am a lot more sleepy and fall asleep sooner. On other days I go to sleep later because I'm not sleepy.

    Generally, I've so much more energy than I did before losing weight.

  • At night, around 5, and then if my schedule allows it I'll take a 2 or 3 hour nap in the day

    www.sleepyti.me This site will is kinda neat. It counts your sleep cycles for you so you know when to go to bed or when to wake up

    Thanks for that - I use a mobile app but still sleepy in the mornings. I'll try a bedtime varient and see if that helps
    Nothing like a good nights sleep to change a whole day!

    Very welcome! It really made a world of difference for me! :) Hope it helps you too

    Maybe 5 hours if I'm lucky. Being a night owl and an early bird isn't all it's cracked up to be:)
  • I have to have my sleep. :noway: I am usually in bed by 10:30....hopefully asleep by 11:00 pm alarm goes off at 5:00 am.

    If my calculations are correct I don't get enough sleep EVER but I can't sleep past 7:00 or I am wasted!:sad:

    It sucks to get older....I remember as a teenager I could sleep till noon and wake up feeling like a million bucks!!!!

    I average between 5 and 7 hours, I'd say. It all depends on if I can make myself go to bed at a decent time and whether or not one of the kids wake up at some hellishly early hour, which they've been known to do.

    Some nights I get a full 8 hours. Other nights I get more, if I go to bed early. I NEED sleep. My doctor told me that the human body CAN actually function on only 6 hours of sleep but I can't. I need lots. As a matter of fact, I'm getting ready to go have a nap lol

    Between 6 and 7 hours during the work week. Between 5 and 6 hours on the weekends. It doesn't matter how early or late I go to bed, my internal alarm clock is waking me up at 5:00 a.m. I've never really been one who needed a lot of sleep. As long as I'm in the 5-7 hour range I'm good. Anything less than 5 hours or more than 8 hours messes me up the next day.

    Not enough, that's how much lol. I will average between 5-6 hours during the week, and on weekends it's around the 7-8 mark. I'm up between 5 and 5:30 every morning for work, and on weekends, my internal alarm clock will go off by 6 and I'll have to force myself to go back to sleep. I know I need more sleep, and I miss the days when I was younger when I could function on 4-5 hours of sleep and feel like I had slept for 10. *Sigh*

    6-7. Any more than that, I really don't feel that great during the day. 7 is the perfect number for my body.
