If we could change our lifestyle to get some extra sleep, and decrease the amount of stress we endure, we might just find we lose weight as well. We find it hard to say no, and so end up rushing around doing far too many tasks - often skimping things instead of taking the time to do them well. Tension increases as one thing after another piles up. And that's when we develop an overwhelming desire for food.

However, it now appears possible that there is a scientific correlation between times of stress and eating fattening food. Take a look at the following explanation of how tension can relate to putting on weight - The stress hormone cortisol is secreted when the body undergoes long periods of stress.

As a result, this stimulates the release of insulin in an effort to make our blood-sugar level stable. Insulin ups our appetite, and particularly makes us crave fats and carbohydrates. As we satisfy that need with high fats and carbs, we enjoy the energy high that we were craving so badly.

Momentarily, we benefit from a lowering of stress, and we're satisfied. Although within the merest hint of time the high has gone. This is due to the insulin taking the glucose from the blood, and storing it in fatty parts of the body such as the waist and thighs.

Therefore we should aim to simplify our lives first if we're planning a weight loss program. Weight loss might also be related to getting enough sleep. In the past, people tended to sleep for a third of every 24 hours. It's now considerably less than that.

Alongside this, is the fact that weight problems have increased. One theory is this is due to hormones. If we're not sleeping for long enough, we develop an appetite for more food. This is because our body thinks it must be daytime when we're awake, so it's time to eat.

Patently we have a more urgent need for energy as we become drained, so yet again we desire saturated fats and carbs. Taking back that extra hour for night-time recuperation may well lead to eating fewer calories.

In short, gaining weight could have been more down to lifestyle than anything else. Why not ask others to take on some of your workload - delegation is often the answer. And so when night-time falls, you're ready to drift off to sleep at a reasonable time, without fighting the desire for just one more snack!
