Sleep changes on sleep apnoea: anyone else sleeping differently? I've been sleeping more deeply since starting week 4.
My theory: the weight loss has improved my sleep apnea (confirmed by recent sleep study — AHI dropped from 25 to 6). Better oxygenation at night = better sleep quality = more energy during the day. It's a virtuous cycle.

Thank you — that is the clearest version of this I have read, and I have read a lot of them. Printing the relevant bit and taking it with me.

Filing a mild objection. Mild because I might be wrong; an objection because nobody has addressed the case that does not fit. The counter-case has not been addressed. Somebody upthread described the situation that does not fit, and the thread moved on rather than engaging with it, which is the failure mode this board is supposed to avoid.
