How Can I Lose Weight While I Sleep?
You can burn more calories when you're doing nothing ... by exercising first.

Exercise raises your metabolism and causes an increased number of calories to be burned even when you're done. That means you can exercise and then sit and watch t.v. and you will be a calorie burning couch potato! Just be sure to work out first; veg out later.

Did you ever see that old weight loss supplement commercial that claimed: "Lose weight while you sleep!"? Well, a pill can't make that happen, but in a way, exercise can. So get moving!
