Can a human body GAIN weight over night? ie. weigh yourself before you go to bed 
and then again in the morning, assuming that you didn't eat or drink anything 
after you were first weighed. 

I think the law of conservation of matter would apply and you would weigh less 
simply due to perspiration and expiration.
