Studies have shown that getting adequate sleep may not only be a boon to your energy and concentration levels and mood, but it may help you lose weight. Or at least, it may discourage your body from packing on extra sleep-deprivation pounds. When we don't get enough sleep, our bodies produce less of a hormone called leptin, a natural appetite suppressant, which may in turn cause more cravings during the day. So next time you sleep through your 6am spinning class, don't be so hard on yourself. After all, it may be the reason you make it straight through to 6pm without cheating on your diet.
