I do this all the time. Eat breakfast go back to sleep. Eat lunch go to sleep.

Someone once told me that is really bad.

I’m not sure

It may cause indigestion, because your digestion system slows when you’re sleeping. I always get a sort of upset stomach if I sleep on a full belly. Also, it can cause you to gain weight because since digestion shuts down it just converts everything to fat.

I don’t eat b4 sleep anymore bcz it makes me wakeup at night from stomach acid going up burning my throat + my nose and from burping. Really uncomfortable when stomach acid ends up in my nose.

I can’t fall asleep if I’m hungry. I have to eat before bed.

I had to stop eating before bed because it causes me to have horrible nightmares and terrible vomit in my mouth. I would wake up with burning acid coming up my throat and would clench my mouth in time to not have a mess to clean up.

I used to have to have a packed stomach to sleep but now I can sleep and function overall feeling a little bit hungry.

Thanks for sharing that article. I did not know that sleeping on a full stomach may increase stroke risk. Really good to know. Imma look into that.

Interesting, my dreams were always more vivid when sleeping on a full stomach.

No problem, I used to only be able to sleep on a full stomach, I’m deathly afraid of strokes, I’m trying to minimize my risks, I contemplated taking shots of olive oil everyday lol.

It’s also unhealthy to swim on a full stomach.

But personally I tend to stay awake if I sleep on a full tummy. Too much action going on inside. Though I may eat late sometimes but usually not right before bed.

I eat something light before bed like a salad cheese sandwich or an egg, fruit. Sometimes i eat something more heavy like meat or pasta, but than i got the consequences in bed, heartburn.
