@law59 I wanted to report back and let you know that I took your suggestion yesterday. I sipped on a Premier Protein Shake from 10AM to Noon instead of eating a meal. I not only stayed awake but felt good and had a bit of energy. I ate a grilled chicken breast around 3PM....stayed awake and felt good. I ate another chicken breast at 7PM and was sound asleep in my chair by 7:30PM! LOL I slept hard for 3 hours, was unable to go to bed again until 3 this morning and slept for 6.5 hours.

My sleep routine - what little routine there is - is really messed up now, but the protein shake seemed to help. I just need to work out a plan for eating in the future - like you also suggested. At least now I know what helps.

I thank you again for your advice. ❤
