In a recent episode of Dr. Oz, the good doctor, himself pointed out that sleep was directly related to healthy weight. He said that if you don't get the correct amount of sleep in the evening, your body will try to compensate by replacing sleep with food.
You will feel the hunger or a strong urge to eat more than you need because the body will overly compensate treating food as the fuel it needs. You'll find yourself nourishing your body with too much food instead of the sleep that it craves. This can easily lead to weight gain and health issues that result from it. This explains so much about my eating habits as well.
While I do eat healthy foods (as of now), I find myself overeating at times. To prove I don't sleep as much as I should, I am finishing this blog entry at 2:47 A.M. I must stop this! Oh well! I'll stop someday, I guess.
Take a quick look at this interesting article! (Your Life = Changed)
