It might be a long shot, but you should probably check your blood sugar. Especially if you are overweight, or have a family history of diabetes.
Postprandial drowsiness can be a symptom of, at least, impaired glucose tolerance.

Me too. My doctor told me that some people have this happen to them when they eat foods with sugar. Even natural sugars that are found in food. So I try not to eat too much sugar during the day at work so I that I don't feel sleepy in the afternoon. Try to cut down on your sugar intake and see if it makes a difference.

Well, it depends. Do you weigh alot? Do you always get sleepy after each meal? Do you eat alot? I guess you should eat, wait about 15min, then go exercise for about 30min-1 hour.
