Difference between Weight loss and Fat loss

Boom !!!

Weight Loss!! This is one of the hottest topics today. But you would need to know that there is a clear difference between them but some of the people use them interchangeably.

So the question is do you want to lose weight? If your answer is yes. You are probably wrong. You need to lose fat not simply weight.
Weight loss is very simple, you just don't need to eat anything. And You will lose fat and a lot of muscles. THIS IS THE WORST THING!

So if I simply differentiate it.

Weight loss means, you just want to reduce your body weight.
The fat loss means you want to reduce your body fat while retaining muscles. So that you achieve your health goals like 8 to 12 percent BF(Body Fat) for male and 15 to 20 percent for female.


So The First Goal is to take care of Your MUSCLES


1. The very first suggestion is to preserve your muscles as much as you can

Your fat percentage is the key factor that addresses your success with preserve your muscles.
And if you gain some muscles so its BIG BIG success while reducing body fat percentage.

Muscles are vital for losing fat as muscles have little fat burning powerhouses called mitochondria.
Mitochondria convert the nutrients we eat into energy. It produces ATP (Adenosine Triphosphate) which is used to facilitate our work from breathing to exercising.

So mitochondria are directly linked to your metabolism and because of these, muscles play a very important role in fatty acid oxidation or we can say fat loss.




2. How to keep muscles while losing fat

Most of the people do mistake while weight loss program by eating too little nutrients, too little macros, and not providing stimulus to their muscles and the result is a loss of quality muscles mass.


3. Important Notes to Preserve your muscles

  • Take enough calories that are suitable for your body weight.
  • Take 1 to 1.2 grams of protein per pound of body weight. Take these much of protein in 4 to 6 meals and don't take more than 30 to 40 grams of protein in a meal. Take as per your muscles maturity.
  • Eat vegetables more than fruits as fruits contain fructose and fewer micros as compare to the vegetables.
  • Drink a lot of water. It's a huge topic itself with a ton of advantages from digestion to reducing the risk of injuries.
  • Do strength training along with high-intensity cardio so you will give reasons to your muscles to maintain themselves.
  • For carbohydrates, always try to eat carbs from whole grain foods that have high fibers. Try to resist yourself in low carbs. Only eat high carbs once or two in a week. Low means (50 to 150 gms) and High means (250 to 350) as per your body weight and fitness activity.
  • Carbs also bind water. So if you make the limitation on your carbohydrates, it will definitely reduce your body water and you will not look bloated. 

So for the people who are big fat or have some goal to lose fat don't change your mind you lower some fat. Do regular check within 15 days or month till you achieve your destiny and make sure always stay healthy.
