How much sleep do you get? How much sleep do you need? People who are active or work-out regularly, should clock at least 7 hours each night. When you don't get enough sleep, your body produces more of the hormones Ghrelin and Cortisol. Both of which increase your appetite, stress levels, and contribute to greater fat storage. Not to mention, your performance and mood are seriously altered. I don't need any "hunger-stimulating" hormones pumpin' through my body!! Furthermore, it's best for your body to follow the natural circadian rhythm and sleep between the hours of 10:30 pm to 6:30 am. You may call me a granny, but lights are usually out for me around 10 or so.
