Can getting too little sleep cause weight gain?
I haven't been diagnosed, but I'm pretty sure I have sleep apnea. I wake up several times a night gasping for air after snoring for a bit. (So says my bf). I was just wondering if poor sleep can cause weight gain, even if you get plenty of exercise and eat well?
