Get Some Sleep
You might not think that sleeping can help you lose weight, but getting the right amount of sleep can help keep your metabolism on track and give you more energy for your exercises and activities. Fall is the start of shorter days and longer nights and you may feel like going to bed earlier and sleeping longer. Make sure you are getting at least eight hours of sleep at night.
