Re: Fasting, Health, Sleep
But I have a question for those who are on more regimented schedules. Like you need to be at class/work really early in the morning, so you can't stay up that late. And if you're to wake up for sehri, you probably need to be in bed maybe 1-2 hours before normal.
So breakdown:
- You need the 8 hours of sleep.
- You need to wake up for sehri, because there is no bloody way you're getting thru your day with no food in your stomach.
- You need to drink water (I do especially, I've had kidney problems before).
You break fast at 7-ish, and you need to be in bed by like 10 for you to actually get up at sehri.
You need to get work done, but you find yourself totally lethargic in the few hours before iftari, and so your work is going slower.
I'm in massive stress. Like by 10 or 11 oclock, I found I basically had some food for iftari (basically my dinner - I don't do the samosas and then the full fledged meal). And I barely have time to drink water. And if I do chug down a whole bunch of water before getting into bed, I'm up in the middle of the night to pee.
And then I spend the rest of the day with lower back pain, because I dont have that water.
I think my biggest obstacle is how to incorporate enough water in my system in the few hours I CAN eat, and yet still get enough sleep. Which minimizes the time that I'm awake and can eat, which minimizes the amount of water I can drink.
Sorry for the long post. I just need help from those who might have some experience in managing a strict schedule with a particular physical condition.
I have sleep problem because ihave 2 children but its just 1 month.
And for water drink craneberry juice or use craneberry pills or Gatorade it will help you a lot never drink plain water empty stomach just drink gatorade
