    I was wondering why I wake up in morning with a body battery of 10% and sometimes 90% (according to my watch) even though I get the same amount and quality of sleep.

    So I’m doing experiments and found it mainly comes down to night snacking. The more snacks and/or closer to bedtime equals lower body battery in the morning. No snacks equals higher body battery in the morning.

    Interesting. I will keep experimenting.

      I wonder what the case would be if you woke up in the middle of the night and essentially demolished a box of cheddar shapes?

        Well it’s early days for my experiment but I’d take a guess and say it wouldn’t be good for energy levels the next day. Who can resist stuffing face with cheddar shapes at anytime though?

          I succumbed to the desire and am paying for it now. Eating extra for the gym is fine, but waking up 3 or 4 times in the middle of the night to smash shapes into my gob isn’t great when you eventually wake up properly.

      I find late snacking and alcohol are two culprits. Or stress/allergies/bug. I had the flu a few weeks ago and I am finding it hard to get the body battery back up. I feel like I am sleeping the same but I am obviously coughing or sniffling or something during the night. I actually find it kinda validating to know when I have to rest

        On Saturday mornings I’ll wake up with a body battery of 5% which means alive. You can’t get no lower than that. My husband will wake up with a 70+% body battery on a Saturday. Usually he wakes with a near 100% every day so alcohol definitely plays a part.
