Get Shut-Eye to Slim Down

Getting enough sleep may help you manage your waistline. Research from the University of Michigan shows you may eat about 6% less food if you replace one hour of awake time with an hour of sleep.

Harvard researchers also found that women who slept five or less hours at night had a 32% greater chance of gaining more than 30 pounds over the course of 16 years as compared to those who got at least seven hours of shut-eye.
