Unpopular opinion: my $8 kitchen scale did more for my sleep than any supplement I bought
Two months ago I was waking up at 3am almost nightly and blaming everything from coffee to my mattress. On a whim I started weighing my dinner on a cheap kitchen scale, and it turned out I was eating close to 2 pounds of food after 8pm. I moved my biggest meal to lunch and kept dinner under 12 ounces, and the 3am wakeups dropped to maybe once a week. I know it sounds like basic portion stuff, but nobody ever frames it as a sleep fix. Has anyone else tracked meal weight and seen their sleep change, or am I just reading too much into it?

Ngl weighing your dinner is the most boring sleep hack ever but hey, 3am doesn't care about cool.

Boring is right but man it works. I just cut my portions down at dinner and stopped eating after 7 and that alone knocked out my 3am wake ups, no fancy tracking needed. @thomas_price you don't gotta weigh everything, just eat a little lighter and earlier and see what happens.
