If you lack sleep, you overeat.
Not enough sleep last night? You may overeat today.
That’s the conclusion of investigators after reviewing data on 172 participants in 11 sleep studies. The study designs varied, but tested people after a night of restricted sleep, usually about four hours, and then after a night of normal rest.
The next day, participants were offered a breakfast buffet or scheduled meals later in the day. The scientists tracked calorie intake and energy expenditure.

So if I didn’t sleep soundly every night I’d weigh 500 pounds.

Actually, I agree with that. Whenever I lack sleep or being awake for more than 24 hour, I really end up binge more than what I really need. That’s so uncool and unhealthy on my part, especially during Mondays.
