Does weight gain inevitably go with sleep deprivation?

I know scientists have proven that leptin and ghrelin levels (the hormones that control appetite and hunger levels) are influenced by too little sleep and thus lead to weight gain. However I never eat more or exercise less when I haven't slept well, so I was wondering if my sleep deprivation would nonetheless lead to weight gain??
