Re: Tired and eating       11/13/03 09:56 PM Edit Reply Quote Ash Reged: 09/10/03 Posts: 21 Loc: Bellevue, WA I do this too! When I am exhausted (and/or hormonal) is when I am most likely to overeat. I think it has something to do with seratonin levels. Your seratonin levels plummet when you're really tired, and things like bread and desserts boost them so you get a temporary high and feel more awake. If you are getting 7 hours of sleep a night and are still tired, you might not be getting good, deep sleep. Do you wake up a lot during the night? You might want to see a sleep specialist -- they can help you figure out to get better-quality sleep. Don't beat yourself up about overeating. It happens to all of us (certainly to me!), especially when we are tired and stressed. Hang in there! Ash Print     Remind Me     Notify Moderator
