MSNBC has an article today about a report in the journal aptly titled “Sleep”. According to the 6 week study those that slept too much or not enough gained weight.
Do you monitor your sleep? I know that I have rules around my sleep that I try to live by. If I get less than seven hours sleep for more than four day I know that i will have trouble concentrating and will lose my endurance and strength. On the other hand I never get more than two nights in a row of more than eight hours sleep I also feel sluggish. A bit of a tight rule I know but it works great for me. Looking to make a change and lose some weight? I have reviewed the top diet on the internet and you can go and read over 200 comments people have made about why this diet has worked well for them, as well as some of the problems.

I have first hand evidence that a lack of sleep makes you fat. I enjoy working out (I used to do bodybuilding contests awhile back) and I was trying to get into really good shape a few years ago. Everything was going well and my abs were starting to show. Then for a few weeks I had to work a lot and I was getting 2-3 hours less sleep than normal. I hadn’t changed my diet at all or my workout program and I got fatter! I know because was taking pictures of my progress.
