This Sunday, Nov 1, the clocks fall back and we all get a free hour. My prescription? Spend it asleep. 😴
Sleep is one of the most underrated tools in weight care. When you're short on sleep, your hunger hormone (ghrelin) goes up and your fullness hormone (leptin) goes down. Your brain starts looking for fast energy. That afternoon snack attack after a rough night isn't a lack of willpower. It's biology.
A few ways to make the time change work for you: 🌙 Keep your usual bedtime by your body clock ☀️ Get outside for morning light 📵 Keep screens out of bed ☕ Cut off caffeine after lunch
And if you snore loudly or wake up exhausted no matter how long you sleep, ask about sleep apnea screening. It's common, and treating it can make weight care easier.
