Out of curiosity I weighed myself before I went to bed last night. When I got up this morning I weighed 1.2KG less. Now I didn’t get up in the night for a piss, nor did I have any ‘exercise’. There was no eating and no dumping between the weighing.

So...if I was to go to bed earlier, would I lose more weight? Will this revelation put gyms out of business?

I'm taller in the morning than I am in the evening, to the point where I have to adjust the rear view mirror slightly when I drive home from work.

I'm always a bit fat.

Hope this helps!

A combination of factors really.

The biggest ones will be evaporation, (I always have a dry mouth in the morning,) and respiration, (the process by which Glucose is converted to carbon dioxide and water, with help from Oxygen. Since the CO2 is released into the atmosphere, you'll lose weight.) And sweat.

I see you are losing a lot of weight per night, you do realise that all the CO2 you're releasing is killing Polar Bears, don't you? You're a terrible person.

I am trying to recover the weight loss during the day by eating lots of Haribo's.

Does this make me less terrible?

Something must be getting consumed to keep your body at 37 degrees all night. You don't get heat for nothing.
