Getting only a few hours sleep?

Oooppssss... looks like I am at risk with my 4 - 6 hour sleep schedule.

From CNN:

Too little sleep may raise the risk of developing heart disease, according to
a study of nearly 72,000 nurses. Women who averaged five hours or less of
sleep a night were 39 percent more likely to develop heart disease than women
who got eight hours. Those sleeping six hours a night had an 18 percent higher
risk of developing blocked arteries than the eight-hour sleepers. Dr. Sanjay
Gupta tried to explain the link. "They say people who aren't getting enough
sleep probably are having irregularities in their blood pressure and
irregularities in their blood sugar tolerance," Gupta reported. "The overall
impact of that can have some impact on your heart."

Gaining Weight? Blame Your Bedtime

                    Are you gaining weight and have no idea why? The culprit
                    could be your bedtime.

                    If you don't get enough sleep at night, it doesn't matter what
                    you eat and how much time you spend on the treadmill. If
                    you're exhausted, your diet just won't work. Why? Sleep
                    deprivation affects the hormones that control appetite and
                    weight reduction. According to Jewish World Review, physical
                    exhaustion thwarts your diet efforts in both obvious and
                    unexpected ways.
