How many CM (inches) of height do you lose from morning to evening (poll)?

I am 165.5cm in the morning, after 4 hours it goes back down to 164.5, which is what I consider my actual height, I think the male average was taken at this 'non morning' height.
Ιt is for sure more.

My differemces between morning and evening are about 2cm, never less than 1.5cm and when I hitbthe gym hard I may lise even a little more than 2 cm (about 2.2).

Bu no, 1 cm is too little.
Noone loses less than 1.5 unless they are awake only for 6-7 hours and then they sleep again.

Bodybuilder, I think that the loses are individual based. I average about 1.2 cm loss when I measure at night  but on some few nights it is 2 cm. There are several factors at play, such as how long you slept or if you were slouching for a good part of the day that can impact your height on a small scale like this.

I lose around 1.5cm (sometimes it even seems 2cm).

1cm is definitely not the standard.

I think I may be in the minority here as I lose anywhere between 1.5-2 inches


Yes, inches. Not cm

You need to get your spine and knees checked. Sounds like there's something wrong.

I hit 171cm in the morning and go down to 169-169.5cm in the late evening depending on how much walking I do. Mid-day height is just a touch under 170cm, which I consider to be my real height.
