When Are You Lightest In The Day?

People are lightest early in the morning – just after waking up and before eating or drinking anything.

7-8am is a good time.

This is because your body loses water weight overnight through breathing and sweating, and you haven’t yet consumed any food or beverages to add to your weight.

Here’s a more detailed explanation.

Overnight Weight Loss

During sleep, your body continues to function, and you lose water through breathing and sweating. This contributes to a lower weight in the morning.

Empty Stomach

After a night of not eating or drinking, your digestive system is relatively empty, which also reduces your weight.

Toilet Use

Using the toilet before weighing yourself also removes stored waste, further contributing to a lighter weight.

Summary

Therefore, if you want to get an accurate measurement of your weight, the best time to weigh yourself is first thing in the morning after using the toliet – and before eating or drinking anything.
