I snore . What do you do to reduce or eliminate snoring, besides go to another room, so the wife can sleep?
Do you snore?

I did snore until I got diagnosed with sleep apnea and started using a CPAP machine.
No. A lot of people in my family do though. I feel really bad for people who snore and feel even worse for the people who have to sleep with them.
I do, but several sleep studies later has determined it is not obstructive apnea, nor do I stop breathing. Its more due to a "fat" palate. If I lose a good amount of weight, (>20lbs.) it goes away. Until then, I sleep in another room with the dogs. They snore louder than me.
No. I stayed up all night one time to listen for it and it never happened.

Not that Im aware of. The Lady Friend says I don't when we travel.
Getting back to your fighting weight like when you were 18 can help, especially with the apnea issues.
I weight the same as when I was 18, my doctor said weight has nothing to do with it.
Don't sleep on back. Spouse and I have been in separate rooms for decades, lol. She snores, I snore. I need to move around the bed from one side to another. Sleeping together is overrated
I moved into an upstairs bedroom. Best decision of my life. It's a win win for both me and the wife. I've gotten so used to my personal space, vacation presents some challenges but at least that's only a short-term issue.
I almost completely stopped snoring when I quit drinking. I still snore a bit if I am extremely tired and sleeping on my back.
Same.
A lady friend told me I did but only on my back and after a week of us traveling with little sleep. I'm fairly fit so it isn't weight related.
I bring these heros ear plugs on trips, and its funny, nobody ever wants to take a pair, that way they have an excuse and reason to complain the next morning.

This. Snoring isn't just an annoyance to the people around you, it's a personal health issue. I don't know how much damage I've done to my brain over the years by basically suffocating every night.
Wife has never told me I snore. I’m an odd sleeper because I sleep on my stomach with a pillow over my head.
we just bought a new bed that adjusts. It has a no snoring position. The head is slightly elevated. It seems to be working. It is not perfect, the wife still snores some nights, and I probably do as well. The mattress is better than our old bed and I'm liking the slight incline. We also got temperpedic pillows. I think that is helpful as well.
