Snoring

[DrYes]

Well be losing some weight. Wife had been complaining it has worsened. So I will attempt that. Although, I didn't know about the pillow height info.

The weight or the snoring?

[unskinnybob]

Still have your adenoids? Apparently snoring can be greatly reduced by removing them and you won't miss them.

Think that's the surgery everyone suggests. Still have mine - whatever they're for.

Bmi of 24 aint great is it?

It's not bad, considering it's winter. Think under weight for men is below 18 and obese is over 28 or even 30.

Schitt, sometimes I snore so loud I wake myself

But then again I only snore when I had a few

[RiaX]

Yeah but really surgery? thats expensive man, money better spent on the household

So I've always been a bit of a snorer. Of late it's gotten so bad that the missus gets out of our bed and in with the youngling.

Nothing I've tried so far helps. I'm pretty much considering surgery at this stage. What can I say - I'm a cuddler and waking up alone sucks.

Anyone deal with snoring successful? Please save the old wives tales. Tried and tested please. First hand accounts.

Milk and late night drinking of alcohol/coffee makes me snore.

R you a smoker? Quiting heavy smoking cured it for me......especially, heavy smoking mixed with heavy drinking.

Some people swear by the Pillar Procedure.

Milk?! Really? I practically LIVE on milk!

R you a smoker?

Haven't smoked a cigarette in more than ten years. Don't think I've smoked a joint in about a year.

The missus has a hard time moving or waking me. Before she got pregnant she was like 55kg. I'm 95kg.

Then she must learn the ancient art of petite sharp elbow to the short rib. Basic principle: If you dont roll over, she isn't doing it hard enough. Also if you put your arms above your head and on your back, that will cause some serious snoring. A hard poke on the traps muscle under the arm will roll you no probs. Its just about pressure points really. As long as you are not one of those wake up and fight type of dudes. I have a mate like that who you have to wake up like gentle breeze, or he will go defcon 1 on your ass before his eyes are even open.

It's the lactose AFAIK, however proper goats milk is not a problem.

She tries really hard. I wake up some mornings sore but well rested

Get your wife to kick you over onto your side. Most people snore on their backs. If you snore on all sides, then go for surgery. Losing weight, a good height on your pillow to match your spine and all that will help, but they are a very long term, lots of work solution. And they are possibly not even going to help you.

I snore from time to time, only on my back though. If I wake the wife, she shoves me in the side and I roll over. Snoring stops. As I said, if you snore on all sides, then try the other things, but consider the surgery.

If i snore i generally get a good knee in the side and rolled over. I only snore on my back.

I started snoring quite bad, as well as was suffering from bad heartburn all the time (lived on Gaviscon), when I hit about 95-97 kilo's. Went on diet and went to gym and dropped down to 80 Kilo's and the heartburn went away as well as the wife said I stopped snoring completely. so losing the weight worked for me

I have however started putting on the weight again and every once in a while I have started getting heartburn again and apparently (according to the wife) I have started snoring on my back again.

So just trying to shed some kilos again
