    Sleeping right after eating

    Is there anything wrong with sleeping right after eating dinner? When I get home from work, I eat some snack, go the the gym, and I come home to eat dinner and must sleep right away to get a lot of rest if I want to have energy for my job the next day. Does sleeping when your stomach is a bit stuff cause negative effect in your body?

    No. Digestion still occurs while sleeping. Enjoy your nap.

    whatever works for ur body, if u can fall asleep then yea it's fine, if ur tired and ur body is willing to go to sleep that means it needs the rest..so let it rest staying up an extra 30mins because u feel u have to would just be silly

    I love after a good workout to come home, have my post-workout food+shake and then take a nice nap. I really do feel that is the best way I can grow.

    hey OP. given my current intake (I eat about 1/4 of my calories between 1:30p-2pm and 3/4 of my calories after working out between 5:30p-630p... usually done eating the remaining calories by 8pm), I found that this big meal before bed made my night time rest a lot less "refreshing." This may be due to the fact that digestion takes a lot of bodily resources, making it tougher for me to get a good nights sleep. Keep in mind I go to bed at around 9pm. After changing my regimine to eating all food by 7pm, and going to bed at around 10, my sleep has been a lot more satisfying. However, I've always had a tough time digesting food as it makes me sluggish no matter the composition. My suggestion is to try fasting for a couple hours before bed and see how you like it. If you see no difference, eat and pass out as you do =) =)

    just my 2c

    Other than possibly waking up bloated, sluggish, and not ready to eat, you'll be fine. You will still digest your food while asleep. Personally I choose to go to bed about 2-3 hours after my last meal. If I sleep too soon after eating I usually wake up feeling terrible, and not hungry for breakfast.
