We understand that a busy schedule and a boatload of obligations can knock sleep down to the bottom of your priority list. You’re not accomplishing anything productive while sleeping, so why should you commit to getting enough ZZZs?

In fact, those short on sleep are more likely to experience weight gain even while making valiant efforts to lose weight during the day.
