Get your sleep. Give up something else.
Four days to a week of severe sleep deprivation has been demonstrated to push the human body into a state of pre-diabetic crisis (per blood chemistry).
Another perspective: We enjoy sleep. There might be a reason for that, eh?
- beachstartup 14y agoa couple months ago i participated in a deadline push where i was deprived of sleep for up to a week at a time. it felt like my metabolism had completely stopped, and my body was storing anything i ate as fat nearly immediately after i ate it. i was also bloated and gassy all the time. my diet was reasonably healthy (i wasn't eating pizza or anything like that, just normal foods like salads, chicken, occasional steak, some carbs, etc.) it was obviously not good. btw i'm 30 years old, never felt this way before (haven't done a push like this since college age basically)
