First thing in the morning, you feel and LOOK dramatically skinnier?

First thing in the morning, my stomach is near flat. Almost like its a hint to the body I want. Its crazy, sometimes I have to double take in the mirror to make sure its not me.

I know the answer is probably really easy, but I just cant bring myself to sift through potentially blocked websites by my company policy.

I am thinking it might be rouge fat that distributes itself evenly across my body as I lay down for 6-8 hours, then all collects back at the dam that is my stomach. Those that are still loosing <not the ridiculously ripped or fit Herculean examples of DaVinci's model male. Sorry guys, questions not for you> do you ever go through this?

    Could it be possible, and I'm just guessing, that all the food has been digested and therefore you don't have a "food baby"?

    There are probably a couple of factors. I'd imagine dehydration and no food displacing space in your stomach are part of it.

    Just like others have said, its probably that your stomach is empty and you are a little dehydrated after not drinking for several hours. Have you ever noticed the fighters at a weigh in the day before a fight? They are so dehydrated. Chuck Liddell would have a six pack at weigh in and loose it by fight time the next day.

    Bloating from the foods we eat during the day, not to mention the actual food being processed during the day... first thing in the morning you literally have been 'fasting' for presumably 8+ hours, more like 10 or 11 since most don't eat after 8PM, your tummy has no food in it, no bloating so you appear thinner, also weigh less in the morning.

    I always look my best in the morning. Then by the afternoon, the rolls become more apparent. Damn gravity!

    Your posture is better and you are actually anywhere from 1/4 to an inch taller in the morning. That may have something to do with it as well.
