Wanna Stay Thin? Go To Sleep!

A study found that women who sleep too little are at risk of major weight gain. Scientists monitored almost 70,000 women for 16 years, recording their weight and sleep patterns. Compared with sound sleepers, women who slept no more than 5 hours a night were 32% more likely to gain 33 pounds or more during the course of the study and were 15% more likely to become obese. The researchers said the findings were not related to diet or exercise.
