Question Trouble sleeping?

I have already felt numerous benifits from this WOL, just after 2 weeks. Losser clothing, not hungry, improved skin...better mood and more energy.

The only negative I find is that I haven't been sleeping well. I work third shift, which I realize is my number one problem...I never sleep consistant hours, but this is nothing new to me. Sometimes I sleep from 8 am to 3 pm or 2 pm to 10 pm just depends what I have going on that day. But now I find it hard to sleep 5 hours straight even, and the last few hours I find I have odd "semi-awake" dreams...that are just odd. The kind where you are trying to sleep, but know your almost awake so can manipulate your dream. This just leaves me tired and I end up napping or sleeping way to much on my days off to catch up.

Just wondering if anyone else has noticed this, or if I'm just an odd duck. I've tried sleeping pills in the past...but don't like the after effects once I wake up.

Any ideas would be great!

Thanks all for reading this and have a great week!
