Heres a quick article from the New York Times on how depriving yourself of sleep can lead to weight gain.

“The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition took a small group of men and measured their food intake across two 48-hour periods, one in which they slept eight hours and another in which they slept only four. After the night of abbreviated sleep, the men consumed more than 500 extra calories (roughly 22 percent more) than they did after eight hours of sleep.”

Its been known for years that lack of sleep will affect your quality of life, and now there’s scientific studies that actually show it will add inches to your waistline.
