    And have you tried natural sleep supplements? I find those with 5HTP in them help me, lots of people also find supplements with valerian help them get to sleep. Lots of others out there to try, it's worth it!

    Unless sleep is a food.... No, not directly

    but it does have a huge impact on your bodies ability to function correctly, including energy stores and digestion and development
    What he said. I think it has more to do with what you put in your mouth than how much sleep you are or are not getting. POWs are sleep deprived for days, and I don't think they were skinny because of too much sleep. IJS.

    POWs are also fed little to nothing, so that really doesn't apply here.

    I am eating around 1400 calories a day.
    thanks for agreeing with me...

    In my case, yes. Because then I would feel lethargic the whole day and not want to exercise! LOL
    Me too!
