Ok...maybe I am just dumb here..

Here's my question...

When I was eating badly & not exercising I found it NO PROBLEM to go to sllep at the end of the day. I was exhausted. Now that I am eating better, I have no problem getting up in the morning which I love, but my issue now is, I cannot fall asleep at night!! I am just full od energy and cannot seem to calm down.

HELP!!

OMG, I was thinking the same thing yesterday! Ive been having the same thing happen since I started working out.

I work out at night now so my schedule is all off. I get home going for 10 at night and sometimes stay up late trying to come back down.

I am just glad I am not the only one here. I think I finally fell asleep around 12:30 this morning. DS gets up at 6 for his bottle, and I have no trouble getting up, it's just unusual for me.

Did you increase your caffeine at night?

Re: Ok...maybe I am just dumb here..

I find when I work out at night, it throws off my ability to get to sleep easily. I'm usually up between 5:30 and 6AM every morning because that's when my 1 yr old wakes up for his bottle. I usually just give him his bottle and then I'm out the door for my run. I have no issues getting to sleep at night with morning workouts.

When are you exercising?

Re: Ok...maybe I am just dumb here..

I only have one cup of tea in the morning and then one glass of green tea in the afternoon, the rest is water. As far as exercising, I fit it in when DH is home to watch the kids. If he's off, I go about 8 am. If he's working I either go at 4 pm or 9 pm.

I find when I exercise at night I have trouble going to sleep. Do you notice a difference when you exercise earlier? You just may have more energy because you are getting healthier!
