the evidence suggests that several different factors could be at play. chronic sleep deprivation seems to make you eat more food, burn fewer calories, and it even affects hormones that can have an impact on your weight.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cmost adults require 7 to 9 hours for optimum overall health. regularly getting less sleep than you need leads to sleep debt, which is difficult to make up, and often leads to chronic health conditions,\u201d states rachel, owner of<a href=\"https:\/\/pillowpicker.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"> pillow picker<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>\u201ci am a devotee of sleep. when i have a good night\u2019s sleep, my mind is clearer, my emotions smoother and i am more productive the next day. it\u2019s much more enjoyable to be alive. that\u2019s enough for me to make sleep a priority. sleep is just as important as diet and exercise for health and yet is often overlooked. try to remember how you felt the last time you had a good night\u2019s sleep; or, better yet, the last time you were rested. if that isn\u2019t enough inspiration, perhaps a look at the research will inspire you. sleep has been found to improve memory and learning, decrease inflammation, maintain a healthy weight, lower stress, decrease accidents, improve mood and much more. it has even been found to help us live longer. if we all got enough rest, life would be so much better for us both as individuals and as a society,\u201d states mary maddux, counselor and healing arts practitioner and founder of<a href=\"http:\/\/meditationoasis.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"> meditation oasis<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><i>so, the million-dollar question:<\/i> how important is sleep when trying to lose weight? very important!<\/p>\n<h3>staying up late gives you more time to eat.<\/h3>\n<p>if you\u2019ve ever downed an enormous bowl of ice cream or that gigantic bag of popcorn in front of your computer after dinner, you know that most of us tend to make less-healthy eating choices at night. often, the later we stay up, the more likely we are to start raiding the cupboard or fridge for junky snacks. and in turn, take in more calories than we need. \u201cgoing without enough sleep makes junk food look more tempting, and increases desire for fatty and high-calorie foods. staying up late at night often leads to greater overall calorie consumption and makes us more prone to putting on weight,\u201d states dr. michael j breus.<\/p>\n<p>research backs this up. subjects who stayed up late consumed around 550 extra calories between 11:00 p.m. and 4:00 a.m., found one study presented at an american heart association conference.<\/p>\n<p>of course, one late-night snacking session probably won\u2019t wreck your diet. but over time, the extra calories can add up, which means excess weight can creep on.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\"><strong>track what you\u2019re eating during the day and keep your <a href=\"https:\/\/noom.8utb.net\/c\/1720052\/500038\/8591\"><a href=\"https:\/\/noom.8utb.net\/c\/1720052\/500038\/8591\"><strong>noom<\/strong><\/a><\/a>\u00a0app handy. when you feel the need to eat junk food late at night, take a look at the healthy foods you logged during the day to give you the power to skip those empty calories.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<h3><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"img-responsive\" src=\"\/\/www.digitopmedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sleep-deprivation-night-eating.jpg\" alt=\"sleep deprivation and night eating\" width=\"1484\" height=\"1178\" \/><\/h3>\n<h3>when you\u2019re tired, you have less energy to make healthy nutrition choices.<\/h3>\n<p>that means exercising, for starters. if you\u2019re exhausted and trying to fight that connection between sleep and weight loss, there\u2019s a good chance that you\u2019ll want to spend your free time hanging out on the couch instead of being active, findings suggest. (or sleeping in, if you\u2019re a morning exerciser.) as a result, you could end up burning fewer calories throughout the day.<\/p>\n<p>those intentions to eat right could fly out the window too. making a healthy meal isn\u2019t hard, but it does take a little bit of planning and prep work. if you\u2019re too tired to muster up the energy, you might be more inclined to order takeout or grab a slice of leftover pizza from the fridge instead.<\/p>\n<h3>sleep deprivation weight gain \u2013 it makes you hungrier.<\/h3>\n<p>hormones play a crucial role in leveling out hunger levels. that\u2019s what connects sleep deprivation and weight gain. (this is not what we want. we want sleep and weight loss.) if it\u2019s been a while since your last meal, your body will start producing ghrelin, so you feel hungry and want to eat. and as your stomach starts to fill up, your body starts producing leptin, so you feel like you\u2019ve had enough and wanted to stop, as shared in a study in<a href=\"http:\/\/journals.plos.org\/plosmedicine\/article?id=10.1371\/journal.pmed.0010061\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"> <i>plos medicine<\/i><\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>but these hormones can get thrown out of whack when you don\u2019t get enough sleep. according to<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pubmed\/15602591\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"> ncbi<\/a>, research has noted that those who typically get just five hours of sleep produce significantly more ghrelin and significantly less leptin compared to those who snooze for eight hours. that\u2019s a combination that can cause you to eat more than you usually would.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cthere is a lot more to sleep deprivation than a few late nights. if you are not achieving an adequate amount of sleep for prolonged periods, it puts a serious strain on the body and can cause life-threatening conditions, and in some cases, significantly increase mortality risks compared to those that achieve the recommended hours per night,\u201d states<a href=\"https:\/\/www.daimanuel.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"> dai manuel<\/a>, certified lifestyle mentor &amp; executive performance coach.<\/p>\n<h3>it can also make you crave unhealthy food.<\/h3>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"img-responsive\" src=\"\/\/www.digitopmedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sleep-deprivation-hunger.jpg\" alt=\"sleep deprivation and hunger\" width=\"1300\" height=\"650\" \/>running low on sleep doesn\u2019t just make you want to eat more. often, it makes you want to eat more junk.<\/p>\n<p>in one study in the journal<a href=\"https:\/\/academic.oup.com\/sleep\/article-lookup\/doi\/10.5665\/sleep.5546\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"> <i>sleep<\/i><\/a>, subjects reported feeling hungrier and had a stronger desire to eat when they were short on sleep. and they were significantly less able to control the impulse to scarf down low-nutrition snack foods like cookies and chips.<\/p>\n<p>researchers suspect that\u2019s because sleep deprivation boosts chemical signals in the brain that make food pleasurable and rewarding. so when you\u2019re tired, your favorite snacks seem to taste even more delicious than usual. and you\u2019re more likely to gobble them up, even if you aren\u2019t hungry.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\"><strong>an extensive database of food managed by nutritionists, like the one available from <a href=\"https:\/\/noom.8utb.net\/c\/1720052\/500038\/8591\"><a href=\"https:\/\/noom.8utb.net\/c\/1720052\/500038\/8591\"><strong>noom<\/strong><\/a><\/a>, is perfect for men and women trying to lose weight. just looking at the good foods you chose during the day may be enough to keep you from eating those non-nutritive foods late at night.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"text-muted text-uppercase jump-target\" style=\"margin-bottom: -30px;margin-top: 40px;font-size: 0.85em; color: #aaa\" id=\"jump-how-much-do-you-need\">how much do you need<\/div><h2>how much sleep do you need for weight loss?<\/h2>\n<p>skimping on sleep clouds your ability to make healthy choices, ramps up hunger and cravings, and messes with the way that your body processes energy from food. add it all up, and it\u2019s no wonder that sleep and weight loss so strongly affect your efforts.<\/p>\n<p>so what kind of sleep numbers do you need to go for to keep the number on the scale in check?
