I think I said something to my mom like I wasn't sleeping at all. Which wasn't strictly true. I was falling asleep between 1 and 3 am. And I had to be awake at 6 am. She just said that I was probably sleeping and wasn't aware I'd fallen asleep. Since it was a struggle to get me out of bed every single morning for years, you'd think she'd have paid more attention. I didn't press the matter either, but I was wide awake. I would look at the clock and see what time it was.

I'm not sure, but I think it did help me lose weight. I started taking it for the omega 3's, but it really did mess with my sleep. It didn't seem to matter what time I went to sleep, I'd wake up in six hours. Wide awake from dead sleep and no hope of going back to sleep. A few nights like that are okay, but several months of being shorted an hour or two wear on you.
