Sleep: 3hrs - I'd drunk a bottle of beer the night before and eaten a burger and piece of pie before bed (as a last hurrah)... Could not sleep for love nor money, I felt terrible. Eventually dropped off at about 3am, then before I knew it my 6am alarm was going off - cue large dump of adrenalin to start the day off - cue cortisol - cue abdominal body fat - Cortisol is a low grade adrenalin that "stimulates abdominal fat synthesis by inhibiting growth hormone" (Sher et al. 2005)
