    Gain weight from one nap? No.

    If you nap frequently, though, you're obviously using fewer calories than you would be if you stayed awake the entire day. We burn fewer calories sleeping than even being awake and sitting up (AFAIK - somebody correct me). So over time, if you nap frequently, it could eventually add up.

    But not just one nap on one day.

    Sleep is actually good for weightloss. If you're tired and stressed, your cortisol levels rise, and it's harder to lose weight in that state.
    Rest if you need it. Just make sure you're active for some of the day, every day, too.

    I have fatigue from a chronic medical condition and nap all the time. I lose weight just fine.

    You actually lose weight during a nap, just not as much as you lose walking around.

    If naps made you bigger I'd weigh 80 stone rather than 8.

    Yes, sleeping will make you fat and also make you vulnerable to Freddy Krueger attacks if your parents were involved in his death.

    I was being silly. Do you eat while you're sleeping? Of course you don't so no, sleeping is not going to make you gain weight.
