Where does fat go when you lose weight?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
When you consume fewer calories or exercise, your body turns to fat reserves for energy. Once fat is metabolised to give energy, its byproducts leave the body through skin as sweat, through kidneys as urine and through lungs as carbondioxide as you breathe out.

I'm really struggling with my weight. I've been cycling daily, but the scale seems stuck at 60 kg. I want to get down to 54 kg and I'm not sure where to start with my diet. Do you have any advice on a diet plan that could help?
To support your daily cycling routine and achieve weight loss, focus on a balanced diet with calorie control, incorporating protein-rich foods (lean meats, fish, eggs, legumes), complex carbohydrates (whole grains, fruits, vegetables), and healthy fats (nuts, seeds, avocado), aiming for a daily calorie deficit of 500-750 calories to promote weight loss, while also ensuring you're getting essential nutrients.
