@Anand_Venkatram I take 300 mcg of melatonin before bed

@ShawnW_Colorado Yes, initially the hunger can feel uncomfortable and then I grew to appreciating it.

@Pooyamax You're just now discovering that you will ultimately agree with me on everything

@dustinthedad Eating close to bedtime has negative effects on sleep quality. My routine was determined by testing out hundreds of variations of eating time and food types.

@MuldoonMartin Currently:
Calories: 2,250 (10% caloric restriction from RDA)
Protein: 130 grams (~25%)
Carbs: 206 grams  (~35%)
Fat: 101 grams (~40%)

If I'm out with friends and everyone is eating, I'll put some steamed vegetables or similar on my plate and nibble to avoid an empty plate becoming a thing that derails the conversation.

My first meal of the day is 6 am for a ~5 hour eating window.

My final meal of the day is at 11 am.

I tested hundreds of times to arrive at this. It creates the highest quality sleep.

Try eating your last meal of the day 2 hours before bed. Then try 3,4,5,6.. hours and see if your sleep improves each time.

@mellybysea @johnfpontius That’s solid

@levelsio I wonder if health biomarkers generally would be predictive of performance
