This is actually decent advice
Absolutely. You know what you do in your sleep? Rest, rebuild muscle, and not eat.
The vast majority of calories being used by our bodies is spent just existing. Big ape brains use a lot of em.
More sleep, less eating, shed them calories.

Definitely. Now, if there weren’t insomnia…
THC 5mg
Melatonin
THC hinders REM sleep. Melatonin supplementation negatively impacts Melatonin production of the body.
No, I think getting the everyday stress level down and finding room for workout again is the solution but it’s not easy.
Bold of you to assume that I can’t be stressed while laying in bed.
Good exercise also helps sleep though
I think excessive sleeping also cause weight gain
Can’t gain weight if you never eat. Stay asleep and just cause your body to enter a state of endlessly losing and gaining equal weight. It’s like time travel but only forward!

It doesn’t “cause it” in the sense that you must eat to gain weight.
The laws of thermodynamics will not be denied by a nap.
However, your passive caloric consumption is lessened at rest, so sleeping too much without changing your diet will absolutely lead to more fat being stored from the excess calories.
Think of it like this: if your current weight is stable, you are at caloric equilibrium. If you change that equation, in any way, you will eventually reach a new equilibrium.
You’re burning less calories? More will be stored (as fat).
You’re taking in less calories? Fat cells take calories to maintain. Excess fat will burned until a new equilibrium is reached.
But the equation that is the human metabolism is complicated. Cortisol causes weight gain by increasing appetite, aka, “stress eating.”
You very well might “lose weight by sleeping” if more sleep helps fix unhealthy eating habits by removing stress.
Tl;Dr Calories in=calories out is a fact of universal law. Where it gets complicated is managing appetite and passive burn.
That’s really just if you eat a large meal before sleeping. You actually burn a decent amount of calories while sleeping.
Don’t take dietary advice from people named after chocolate bars.
