Where did this fatty thing come from? My wife and daughter use them, both are fit and thin.


Obviously this is in no way scientific, but someone on a CPAP message board did an informal poll of 44 people: LINK

18% Normal BMI
16% Overweight BMI
39% Obese BMI
27% Extreme Obese BMI

And that's a poll from 2008, surely the fatties are far worse now. The only people I know who use CPAPs are obese. I wouldn't go assuming every last person who uses one is obese, but the correlation is clearly there...

With my PTSD, i wake up constantly at night so i got checked and didn’t need a APAP or a CPAP machine. Mine was to stop my nightmares and vivid AF dreams.

Well, i got a script that gets me gummies at night and i am completely ok with all you potheads now cause HOLY SHITE!!! It only took 40+ years of my life to finally sleep like a baby again

Weight is most likely a secondary issue.

If you have apnea, you probably have a narrow airway, and undeveloped facial skeletal structure. This compromises your ability to breathe.

Tongue ties are common, and the origin of the problem for some patients.

Its not only for fat people. But the vast majority are.

Checking in as a normal weight CPAP user.
Definite game changer for me.

Anyone who claims that average weight people use these things at the same rate as obese people is full of shite.

How about OP posts his stats.

My cognitive ability went up 100% after getting one. Amazing machine. No more brain fog. Great focus without caffeine even.

Haven't seen anyone in this thread claim that at all.

It is majority overweight people that use them, still are alot of not overweight people that use them also.

Learn me on why sleep apnea has become more common as we've become fatter and why people develop apnea when they gain weight at astounding rates.


You mother frickers will do anything to deny your fatness and poor health

A lot of "I know someone who isn't fat who uses one so it's not just fat people" in these threads. Uh, it's almost exclusively fat people.
