You may already know that sleep is necessary in order to stay emotionally healthy, but did you realize that getting sufficient sleep is also important for maintaining a healthy weight? This article on WebMD entitled "Sleep More, Weigh Less" explains why your body is more likely to feel hungry, hold on to calories and crave starchy/sugary foods when you don't get enough sleep. It is a very interesting read.
If you are looking for tips to improve your sleep, check out one of my past blog posts on this topic. Sweet Dreams!
