How many calories do you lose sleeping?

Answer 1

Your body's organs will burn about 42 calories per hour sleeping. This is only 336 calories in an eight hour sleeping cycle. it would take 80 hours of sleep to equal the calories needed to lose one pound. Sleeping is not a good weight loss activity.

Answer 2

About 2 calories per minute.

so if you sleep for 8 hours you lose 960 calories..

Does the disclaimer "your results may vary" sound familiar? It should, because it follows nearly every weight-loss commercial (usually in a voice moving at the speed of light). The amount of calories burned depends greatly on the person.

This weight-loss calculator from FitWatch.com asked us to enter our weight and how long we planned to sleep. According to the ensuing calculations, a 160-pound person who sleeps eight hours will lose roughly 549 calories in the process.

Answer 3

Most people burn around 90 calories an hour when they are sleeping. This depends on your weight. The more you weigh the more calories you will burn in one hour.

On average you would burn around 720 calories in 8 hours of sleep

Answer 4

It sort of depends. The average person who is exercising modestly to moderately and eating healthy can lose up to 3 to 5 pounds in 8 days. If a person does nothing but exercise and limit what they eat in healthy foods (as they do on weight loss shows, like "The Biggest Loser", for example), a person can lose 5 to 10 pounds in 8 days. This, however, is not very realalistic. For normal people in normal, every-day situations, 2 to 3 pounds a week is reasonable if they really try hard and put a lot of effort into it.

Answer 5

it usually varies from an insignificant amount to a pound

Answer 6

Answer 7

Four and a half if I did my math right.
