Now that I am eating good and have been following my menu. I have so much energy that I cannot get a good nights rest. It’s not anxious, it’s all natural energy. Is there something I can eat for my evening snack that might help me rest?? I know not getting good sleep can make you gain. So that is why I’m concerned.
Hi, MrsMarcrum. I’m sorry to read you’re not sleeping. A good snack would be something with calcium (like dairy or nuts) and a carbohydrate (like crackers). Some recent research has also suggested tart cherries to be good – the research was mostly done on the juice, but if you can eat the whole fruit, that is best (even in a jar).
Another option is to do soothing exercises. I know that sounds strange, but if you just lay on your back and do relaxed leg lifts (with your eyes closed, of course), you’ll be amazed at how you can nod off. You will also have burned off some fat, too!
