It’s logical that when you’re tired, you’re body wants energy, so you’ll feel hungrier and eat more, but it’s also scientific and hormonal: 1) Less sleep means less serotonin which means you’ll be wanting more sugary foods. 2) Less sleep means less leptin telling you that you’re full. 3) Less sleep means more ghrelin pumping up your appetite. Soooooo, after years of seeing a connection between sleepy and weighty, the Canyon Ranch advises us to get our z’s to avoid the munchies.

don't you lose weight when you sleep or something? I always feel a little skinnier in the morning...
In fact you do.... if you HAVE to weigh yourself, do it first thing in the AM - no clothes, pre breakfast - you'll get your lowest readings!!!!!!!
