I keep reading that sleep is important to health and to healthy weight loss, but how important is it really? I'm speaking as a mom to two young kids and an insomniac. Often the only "quiet" time I have is when my husband and kids are sleeping, so yeah, I regularly get 5 or 6 hours of sleep a night.

Am I sabotaging all of my hard work in the gym?
