Couldn't I supplement the lack of sleep with protein shakes and multivitamin?
I find sleeping a great way of cutting back on food intake as ya cant eat while sleeping, If you cant sleep i dont think protein shakes are what you need maybe a salad or something lite and devoid of calories..Why do you think your lack of sleep requires supplements?

lol. I have no idea just throwing something random out there. Salad would probably be ideal. I work nearly 80 hours a week is why I made this thread.
Sleep is important for efficient physiological function. If you don't get enough sleep, your body starts shutting down. You'll hallucinate, you'll binge or purge or forget to eat entirely, your organs will scream at you, your heart will suffer, your colon will protest, your brain will hurt, your sinuses will swell up, every part of your body will suffer.
Your question is pretty out there. It's like asking if the planet needs oceans in order for your dog to get enough exercise.

I've read articles in the past that suggest that lack of sleep can contribute to overeating, and have noticed this is true for me. No amount of caffeine seems to counteract the appetite I experience when I am sleep deprived.
As for protein shakes, I've never found them effective at anything but producing a sour stomach. That's probably just me, because they do seem popular with others -- though not to any great results that I've seen personally in those I know.
I think that our grandmothers' advice is good: get a good night's sleep, eat a nutritious breakfast, and go out there and work your fanny off!
I am going to second this. Last year I dropped my sleep from about 7-8 hours a night to 5-6 for about 2 months. I gained 15 pounds. Zero change in activity or eating habits. (Maybe a couple of cups of caffeinated tea more a day was the biggest change)

No. Sleep is restorative and necessary for total health.
