You Gain Weight
Ever heard of ghrelin and leptin? These two hormones affect how hungry you feel. Without a good night’s rest, your body won’t be able to control them properly. That’s why, over time, lack of sleep can cause you to gain weight.
You might feel the need to eat more often, or generally eat larger portions than you normally would.
Some people might stack up on typically healthy foods, but even if all you eat is clean, if you eat more than you should in large quantities, you’re not actually doing yourself any favors. A better solution would be to try and determine what’s causing you to get less sleep!
