Lets talk Snoring...
For a long time I was ashamed to share a room with someone. More exactly, to share a bed.
My self- image played a big role in that, I just thought I wasn't good looking enough, that I wasn't worthy. After I met my partner, I begin to feel better about myself. I was no longer trying to hide myself under the covers.
However, I still had a big problem - I used to snore very loudly. You can't imagine how I felt when my partner made a remark about me ,,waking up the neighborhood"...
I knew my weight played a big part. I looked for remedies, my mother bought me a nasal dilatetor. It helped, I saw some results but because of a rough time in my life my snoring got back...
In the last months I tried to make more major changes to my life. I found a treatment plan that aligned with my weight loss goals. I stopped drinking so much during the week, only indulging myself on weekends. I tried to limit fast food to once a month(Thats still a work in progress). I found out that my sleep problem can also be because of stress- so now I try to meditate here and there.
I'm happy to know I'm making progress. Maybe is baby steps progress, but if I learned something from my weight loss journey is that, this is the only way...
Does anyone else has a snoring problem? Am I the only one? How are you dealing with it?
