Has anyone had trouble with sleeping after losing a significant amount of weight? I am a side sleeper but lately I have been waking up constantly because of my arm losing circulation and my hips feeling uncomfortable. It feels like my back is bending too much toward the mattress without the missing body weight to prop me up straight. I have tried switching to sleeping on my back but I wake up on my side with the same issues. Does that sound like the same issue with a too-soft mattress as above?
Make sure to continually stretch your body out by "lengthening the crown of your head and extending your legs". In other words, don't bunch up especially while you are adjusting to a new body type. Bunching up happens at our joints and when done while sleeping, especially for males, can create tension on the area.
Spread out.
