Feeling Tired After Dinner

I am really fighting not to get asleep while Mylotting here. I had a busy afternoon by putting things from the balcony to the cellar, which I don´t use anymore. Then preparing the dinner.
I have cooked an easy meal. I made Spaghetti with tuna tomato sauce and a veggie salad. The meal was delicious.
After cleaning the kitchen, I put the washing machine on so I can hang the clothes before I go to bed. Now, I am so full that I feel tired. How I wish I can just set on my massage chair and close my eyes for a few minutes but I can´t do that as it might become hours to sleep and I would not be able to do what I have planned to do tonight.
Do you feel tired and sleepy after eating your dinner? Me, not always. Maybe the carrying of things to the cellar made me tired.
Anyway, I hope you have a wonderful start of the month. Thanks for reading.

Do you sleep early then @LowRiderX or do you just take a nap at that time of the evening?

@thelme55 No, I'm not napping at all at that time, it would just be worse, I mostly go to sleep

@LowRiderX I took a half an hour nap because I was getting a headache from fighting not to sleep. Now I am awake.

I never get tired after a meal, but many people experience this. I hope you're feeling better very soon:)

@thelme55 Maybe you didn't sleep restful last night. If this happens, I get tired during the day.

@kobesbuddy I slept well last night. Maybe carrying those things to the cellar made me tired.

I haven't even started cooking supper yet and I'm tired.
I didn't sleep very well last night and it was an early morning start today.
Hopefully I'll make it thru supper and then get to bed early so that tomorrow is a better day.
I hope that you can turn in early tonight and get some rest.

I think the combination of being busy and eating a good meal made you tired. Hope you had a good nights sleep

I think it was indeed the combination of both @Marilynda1225. Yes, I was sleeping like a baby.

I'm longing to eat your spaghetti. I know it's delicious. A person gets sleepy after eating due to the carbo intake.

You can make this spaghetti @Nakitakona. I warn you, it is not sweet like the one you have in Pinas.

it's natural for our body to feel sleepy after a meal. This is because the digestive process starts activated after a meal which needs energy and so blood flow more towards the digestive organs and blood flow to the brain gets reduced slightly causing you to feel sleepy.

Yes, my eyes get heavy after some meals. Today I'm just tired all over. I'm way behind on Discussions and Notifications. Usually I sign off by 6 pm; but I don't think I'll be done by then.

Sometimes it happens with me. I feel tired and sleepy after dinner, but I don't want to leave my husband alone while he's busy working on his laptop
