I am considered myself as fat. My height is 173cm and my weight is 94kg. The problem with fat people is snoring. Sometimes I do find it disturbing even for myself. I can feel that it is difficult to breath sometimes. When I am sharing room with another fat people it is very difficult to have a good night sleep because or the sound of the snore! I hate it very much.

Hi Alokijon I am aware that heavy set or obese people can have sleep apnea and are prone to snoring but I can also tell you this my husband is not fat and he snores like a tractor

Hi alok.. Not only do fat people snore. I have friends who are slim and lanky but yet they snore heavily. Have you tried asking your doctor if a CPAP can help? My brother is heavy, even heavier than you and had obstuctive sleep apnea. He was recommended to get a CPAP and his breathing has improved.

if you feel it's difficult to breathe you might have 'sleep apnea' which is more serious than regular snoring.people with sleep apnea are more at risk for stroke and heart problems.you may want to mention that to your doctor.

I knew someone who was not fat but snored very very loudly. I was very annoying and we always threw pillows at him.

I will have to say that it is not only fat people that tend to snore, as i know that there are alot of very thin people that also snore really, really loudly,alot worse that any fat person i know.I think that alot of drunk people that snore loudly as well,lol, like my daughter.I do find it rather annoying if i am trying to get to sleep and i can hear my husband snoring.

I suppose heavier people have a tendency to snore more than the normal but I can tell you my boyfriend is not fat and he can snore a storm. I live with him for 4 years now and I have not had a good night sleep since I moved in. He is such a sweetie and has tried a great many different ways to stop the snoring but no success. Even went for a sleep study with the doctor and no results yet.
