Did you know the quality of your sleep can impact weight loss?
Lets be real β weight loss is hard. But, when we struggle to get enough sleep or have poor quality sleep it is even harder. Throughout sleep, especially your deep REM-sleep, your body goes through many restorative cycles. One of these includes the production of hormones such as Leptin.
What does leptin do? In short, it aids in regulating energy expenditure and suppressing appetite. So when we have decreased quality of sleep this interferes with our bodies natural hormone productions and balance. Making it even more difficult to achieve your weight loss goals!
How else does sleep affect weight loss? Controlling appetite and increasing movement, important aspects of weight loss, can be challenging. When youβre tired it can feel almost impossible to have the energy to stay motivated. Especially if your experiencing excessive fatigue and headaches!
