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.

To gain weight healthily, focus on consuming more calories than you burn; try: eating smaller, frequent meals, incorporating calorie-dense foods like nuts, dried fruits, avocados, and full-fat dairy products, adding healthy fats and oils to your meals, strength training exercises to build muscle mass, and consider consulting a registered dietitian or nutritionist for personalized guidance.
