Sleep changes on sleep apnoea: anyone else sleeping differently? I've been sleeping better since starting week 2.

My theory: the weight loss has improved my sleep apnea (confirmed by recent sleep study — AHI dropped from 33 to 4). Better oxygenation at night = better sleep quality = more energy during the day. It's a virtuous cycle.

Month 17 update on sleep apnoea: down 74 lbs from my starting weight of 289 lbs. Here's what's changed beyond the scale:

• No longer pre-diabetic (A1C normalized)
• Off blood pressure medication
• Can tie my shoes without getting winded
• Sleep apnea resolved — returned my CPAP
• Confidence level: through the roof

This medication has genuinely given me my life back. I'm not exaggerating. 🙌

This is my experience too, for whatever a second data point is worth. Posting only so the count is not one.

Clinical perspective, offered as context rather than as advice. The mechanism and the magnitude are separate questions. Agreeing that something happens says nothing about whether it happens enough to act on.
