RIO Fitness Chicago® Tip:

Do you not get enough sleep during the week? Now that the weekend is here try to catch up on rest, because lack of sleep: causes the body fat producing hormone cortisol to increase, decreases growth hormones that help us recover from exercise & our day, increases the cravings/appetite hormone ghrelin, and decreases levels of leptin which suppresses appetite.
