Sleep deprivation causes overeating.
Towards the end of the book The Hungry Brain, by Guyenet, there's a reference to research where both the sleep deprived group and the control group are let loose in the city and allowed to eat whatever they wanted, conditioned on letting the researchers weight and classify it first.
On average, the sleep deprived group ate around 300 calories more.
