“Sleep Away the Pounds”
So I just picked up this book from the library and it is incredible! Whether you have trouble sleeping, eating before bed, or not it is a great resource. The whole first part is a good, thorough, quick read on hormones inclusing: Leptin, insulin, ghrelin, cortisol, & growth hormone.
I think part of my problem is that I eat a snack before bed that causes hyperglycemia early in the night. My body produces a plethera of insulin to take care of all the sugar and I become hypoglycemia. That is when I wake up because my body signals that it needs more food. It may also be an adrenaline problem that my “flight or fight” response is going during the night.
Anyways I definitely give this book 2 thumbs up!

So I joined this site yesterday. It is a 60 day study to help a person learn about healthy nutrition, wanting to glorify the Lord with their body, wanting to lose weight for the right reasons. I also now have a mentor and I think that is the most incredible part. She will read my responses, share stories about herself, someone for me to ask anything about. This is honestly the most amazing thing I have found. If you are trying to become healthy or lose weight check it out.
