A large portion of the population does not get enough sleep each night. Whether they’re worried about work or simply can’t fall asleep, a lack of sleep can contribute to your overall weight.

It’s believed that a lack of sleep can disrupt two critical chemicals - leptin and ghrelin. Since these chemicals directly influence and control appetite, disrupted functioning can result in weight gain.

3. Keep a Journal

A journal is a great way to track your progress and help you reach your goals. As you write down what you’ve eaten, you instantly become more aware. This can most certainly help you cut back on mindless eating. As you build awareness, you’ll notice areas that require your attention in order to be improved upon.

You may not realize how many calories you’ve been consuming through daily beverages - a journal could help you make this realization. Each individual is unique in terms of their weight, which is why a personal journal can help you pinpoint pivotal moments.
