i have been SO exhausted lately. ive been getting up at 6 to run and then going to bed at 12 because of so much homework overload and today i fell asleep during math, which really isnt good, i missed the whole 1 1/2 hour lesson and i have no idea what were learning! and next time is a quiz! ive never fallen asleep in a class before... and im stressing out so much... i dont know what to do! i need that running time to sleep an extra hour, i know that, because 6 hours just isnt enough for me. please say i can still lose weight without running! i dont care if its slower, just right now i cant afford the time! or should i just give up? i want to cry right now... but im going to nap instead. then i'll be up until 12 doing homework.

getting up early to run is very good. but then not getting enough sleep is most likely doing more damage. your body needs sleep to repair, rest, and various other things. most of our growing occurs when we sleep. staying up that late means you either have trouble with homework, or you have too much going on after school. if it's the first, then you should get some help, a tutor or brainy friend is good. if you are doing too much after school, let up. your doing yourself no favors by sleep-deprivation.

running every day is good but i find if i run in the morning especially on a school day just do it after school and you should not get that much home work do some at school...and at lunch..

Sleeping actually burns more calories then watching tv, it doesnt make you gain weight

i think she means 12 at night. i know, its hard... why don't you try running during the day after school?? u should get all of the sleep you can, and not run in the morning. You need to be energized. Life will sort itself out, good luck!!!
