#2That's not true. I've been working hard on my side projects after work time and I don't have much sleep unfortunatley. I feel exausted all the time and not exactly hungry, plus to be honest I lost appetite. I'm quite skinny, lean muscle, etc.

Thanks for your personal anecdote. Unfortunately, it is fallacious to try and generalize it to the entire population.

Well, the title does say "you"...

It's the informal generic "you". More formally it'd be "Poor Sleep Gives One the Munchies, Study Says".

I never understood how people don't get sleep. Isn't it a net negative to be dragged through the mud? No matter how rough my day is I always make sure to get 8-9 hours of sleep. The world can wait for me you know? Yeah, sorry Boss, I went out drinking Sunday and I'm coming in at 1pm, too bad.
High energy all day with less time, or low energy all day with more time? I think the latter is worse.

#7I've had one of those crazy weeks that I haven't had for a long time – up until 5-6 in the morning and then back at it again a few hours later.
There were times where I almost forgot to eat and then would suddenly find myself starving. A lot of the time I ended up raiding the house for chocolate and other munchy food. I was surprised by the behaviour but put it down to the lack of sleep.
Anecdotal, but I definitely noticed the low sleep = munchy behaviour in myself this week.

That's true but it's also true that studies like this one, which are true on average of the population, are often not true for each individual. It's worth pointing out that it doesn't apply to everyone.

This strategy becomes a lot less viable if you have children.

I don't get people who will actively lose sleep to do work, but once you have kids your ability to control how much sleep you get leaves your hands somewhat.
Its less brutal now he's older and better able to sleep through the night, but I've had weeks where I was working normal hours and getting 3-4 hours of broken sleep a night, somehow the body adapts to it. I wouldn't say I was doing my best work during that time, but I was definitely more productive than I'd expected to be.
