Dinner early and the wedge pillow got me through those first weeks too
Community
Reflux kept me up last night, tips for today?
What time are you eating your last meal? Mine was creeping later and later without me noticing, and that alone changed my nights
Mine tends to flare when I eat too fast, so I've been putting my fork down between bites and that alone has calmed things a lot.
How long before bed are you eating? I moved my last meal to about three hours earlier and the burning dropped off a lot, though I still get it if I eat late.
I'm in Cincinnati too and the nighttime burn hit me around week two. Propping my head up with an extra pillow did more for me than anything I tried
What time are you eating dinner? I moved mine up to like 5pm and the nights got noticeably quieter
What time are you eating your last meal? Mine got way calmer once I moved dinner earlier, and I'm only a few pounds in so it's not like I've got a lot of cushion to blame it on
Do you notice it worse on shot day or a couple days after? Mine clusters right around then, and the wedge pillow only half helps on those nights.
Curious whether yours is worse on shot day or a couple days after? Mine seems to hit hardest around day two.
I'm on Ozempic too and the nighttime stuff hit me around month two. What helped was propping the head of my bed up a couple inches with books. Sounds dumb but I slept through the night for once.
Coffee was the hardest one for me too. Did switching to cold brew actually help you or did you have to drop it completely?
Curious whether yours hits more at night or in the morning? Mine was almost always overnight, and it eased off once I stopped eating within a few hours of lying down.
Curious whether it hit you around the same point in your loss as mine did.
What time are you eating dinner? I moved mine earlier by a couple hours and the nights got noticeably quieter, though I still keep the head of my bed propped up.
What time are you eating dinner? I had to move mine earlier than felt reasonable before the nights stopped being rough.
How long before bed are you cutting off food? I moved my last bite to about four hours before lights out and the nights got noticeably quieter.
What dose are you on? My reflux only kicked in the couple days after my shot and then faded, so I'm curious if yours tracks with that or is just constant
How long before bed are you eating? Shifting my last meal earlier by a couple hours did more for the night burn than anything else I tried
mine hits hardest when I eat too close to lying down, so I've been having my last meal earlier and staying upright for a while after. Still on 0.5mg here and it's been enough to keep the burn down most nights.
