how much height do you lose at night?

Just measured myself, I guess it's around mid-day, because I felt like I have been shrinking? My general perception has been that I'm not as tall as I used to be, mainly around old friends, familiar objects, etc.

Lo and behold, I'm still about 6'1'' barefoot, a little bit taller then I expected, I always assumed I was just barely above 6'0'' wi/out shoes

Yet people and even myself assume I'm around 5'10 ? My posture isn't the best so maybe that is it. Or maybe I shrink to 5'10 at night


whats the max you can shrink over the course of the day?


 
Unless you sleep during the day, you should grow taller at night. Since gravity isn't compressing all your joints, you may grow about 1/4" taller while you're in the prone position. Once you stand up, gravity starts kicking your ass and you shrink in height.
 
it could be that all the people that you hang around have become taller than "average". Just hang around 5'2" people and you will feel like you are very tall. Hang around 5'7" people, not so much.
