Weight Loss While You Sleep

Do you know that in order to attain free fast weight loss, you have to sleep? Free weight lose will not be fast if you would not sleep properly. Why?

1. Lack of sleep and food intake
When you are not sleeping properly,
your body tend to feel tired hence feel wrong signal of hunger. Most of the people tend to eat more when they feel weakness from lack of sleep. Funny how you can think that lack of sleep is the fastest and free way to increase weight!

2. Stress
You feel drained and exhausted when you don't sleep. Eventually this will cause you more stress.
Are you familiar with people who eat a lot when they are under stress? There is a scientific explanation for this and I hope your nose wont bleed hearing this.lol!

Our body once under stress produce a fighting system to protect us. Cortisol is part of this fighting system. It is a hormone created by our adrenal cortex located in adrenal gland.

What does cortisol do that make this fast free weight lose impossible?
Don't get me wrong by thinking that cortisol is not good for us. There are two sides of the story. First, is the fighting action that cortisol do to help our body survive stress. Second is, what happened to these fighting actions after stress is over, this is where free weight lose is at stake.

Lets brand these two sides as the Pros and Cons of Cortisol. First it may be helpful to draw a simple flow for all of you;

Lack of Sleep>Stress>body produces Cortisol to fight stress>Cortisol Pros and Cons

Pros
1. Increase your alertness and energy level
-no wonder we feel hyper active sometimes when we lack of sleep
2. Glucose production increases to help the body produce more energy
3. Body dsnt feel hunger
-if you feel this a good point, i will explain later how this tend to ruin fast free weight lose
4.Cortisol activates carbohydrates and fat to produce more energy

The above good points are what cortisol can make during stress attempts to enter our system or the moment our brain sensed any stress coming our way.

After stress is over, here are the thing Cortisol do and classified as Cons as its end results affect your weight.

1. After stress, cortisol increase our level of appetite as it understands that it has to replace the carbohydrates and fat it released. This is where the problem arises.
How many times you feel under a great stress while silently sitting in your office? How many times you feel stress by just thinking your credit card bills? During this time you arent doing anything that didnt involve physical strenght but because of the stress it creates your boday was exhausted. Thus, cortisol produce carbohydrates and energy for nothing since you never actually needed and used it. But after the stress period,let say you stop thinking about your cards and do something stress free, Cortisol increases your appetite to replace the carbohydrates and fat you should have used under stress period. Go figure on how you will eat trying to fulfill this "fake" need.

2. Maintained stress means continous effect from no. 1
Your body now has continous increase in appetite to fulfill the "fake" need triggered by stressful situations.

Note: Continuous lack of sleep means continuous stress

3. This excessive food intake will eventually lead to weight gain and formation of excess fats in your body. Hence, free fast weight lose is nowhere to be seen.

In most cases you will observe this weight gain by the formation of fat layers along your waist line. This is because the fat cells in that area is more susceptible in Cortisol.

Reading this will help you realize how harmful effects are cause by stress. If this is still not enough reasons for you to practice good sleeping habits, I guess your weight should be your next consolation.

You could never achieve fast weigh loss if you wouldn't sleep properly.
