Are weight loss, weight loss and fat loss the same? What is the difference between them?
There is an important difference between losing weight and losing weight. Simply put, losing weight means losing fat!

First of all, conceptually speaking, reducing fat means reducing body fat rate or reducing fat content.

The curves of different body fat percentage are very different. Losing weight is the reduction of total body weight, including muscle, fat and water. In the process of losing weight, muscle and fat will be lost together. It is impossible to lose fat without reducing any other tissues.

Secondly, from the effect point of view, the two are also different!

Simply losing weight will lose muscle, and if the muscle content decreases, people's basal metabolic rate will decrease, immunity will also decrease, and temporary weight loss will cause a rebound. Therefore, you can lose weight in a short time through dieting and exercise, but it is often easy to rebound.

Thirdly, under the same weight, the volume of fat is greater than that of muscle.

Thirdly, under the same weight, the volume of fat is greater than that of muscle.

This is why two people with the same height and weight, some people will look slimmer. This should be referred to from the body fat rate. The normal body fat rate is 15%-20% for men and 20%-25% for women.

Finally, fat is distributed in different places, and health is different.

Therefore, people should pay attention to the change of waist circumference in the process of losing weight, especially waist circumference, which is an important index reflecting the total fat and fat distribution.
