Me too: Your body sends blood to digest your food. Make sure you don't over eat. Always eat breakfast and try to include protein and complex carbs in every meal. Get enough sleep too. I say, siesta! president reagan shut the doors and slept for 30 minutes after lunch each day. Unless wwiii was happening, it could wait. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/siesta.
