How someone views weight loss and fat loss will have a huge bearing on their attempts to become leaner. To many, weight loss and fat loss are viewed as the same and often are used interchangeably in normal, every-day conversation without complication. But for many a distinction needs to be made.

Fat loss can be defined as a reduction in body fat only and can change even when total body weight remains the same. For example, when someone follows a resistance training program, their muscle mass may increase and their fat levels may decrease, but because one change offsets the other, overall body weight can remain virtually the same.

Muscle and liver storage of glycogen (carbohydrate) and water can affect body weight without effecting body fat levels. Following a bout of resistance training, and assuming adequate nutrition has been consumed with sufficient amounts of carbohydrate, the muscle and liver glycogen (carbohydrate) stores are filled to capacity. And for every 1 gram of glycogen stored, 3-4 grams of water is also stored. (This is why muscles appear to be bigger and fuller the day after a weights session. The muscle hasn’t dramatically grown overnight; it’s just full of glycogen and water). This storage explains why even though body fat levels haven’t changed, total body weight can fluctuate on a daily basis.

When this process is manipulated, rapid weight loss is possible (and spot reduction – but that’s another article). Training depletes the muscle of glycogen and water, and if not replaced, the body becomes lighter on the scales and rapid weight loss is reported, albeit without a reduction in actual body fat.

This brings us to our definition of weight loss – a reduction in total body weight whether it’s from a reduction in body fat, muscle tissue, water stores, glycogen stored, liver glycogen stores or a combination of 2 or more.

Unfortunately, too many people fail to see the difference between fat loss and weight loss and mistakenly focus on total body weight, thinking that to reach their ‘ideal size’ their weight must be a certain number on the scales. This line of thinking has serious implications in terms of exercise adherence and motivation. For example, a minimal or non-existent reduction in total body weight can be seen as a failure even though a reduction in body fat has occurred. For those that fail, or simply refuse to distinguish between fat loss and weight loss, this may be enough to deter them from continuing with their exercise program.

Weight loss without an associated loss in fat is an unfavourable outcome. This usually means that muscle tissue is being lost and that’s bad news for your metabolism. Your muscle mass drives your metabolic rate so any reduction makes it harder to for your body to lose fat and to avoid gaining fat.

Another body composition scenario that may occur is that total body weight may stay the, with an increase in body fat and a decrease in muscle mass. This is common amongst retired sports people who cease training, resulting in muscle atrophy (wasting), but continue to follow the eating habits they had when playing and training. Although muscle can’t literally turn into fat, this is a common and reasonable description of what happens when people stop training and continue familiar eating habits.

So when someone is following an exercise program to lose fat, they must be aware of the distinction between fat loss, weight loss, and muscle mass. And realise that in all probability, if they include a resistance training component for muscle mass and metabolic maintenance, their body weight won’t change as much as their size will.

A Complete Guide Needed to Lose Body Fat

Seeing so many people looking for information about fat loss – lose body fat everyday, and the words they typed when they came to my website make me feel that they were crying for help.   And I would like to tell all of them who need help that I’m here for you – A Fat Loss Pro with a Fat Loss System is right here to help you!

A Fat Loss System needed to lose body fat

I can feel how you feel and how you need the help.  From my experience, you need a system that include everything you need for fat loss.  Because losing weight is a big life changing process, a journey, it can’t be done just by piece of information or a bit of tips, you need a system or a complete guild that include everything in order to achieve fat loss.

Just think for a minute, when you go on a trip,  what do you need for it? You need at least a compass that will guide you at a right direction,  a map and a vehicle to take you there.  Among those the compass is most important because if you get wrong direction no matter how good the map and vehicle you have, you will never arrive in your destination.

When it comes to weight loss, you need a complete guild to fat loss, and tools. Does every job or business need guidelines and tools? A carpenter needs screwdriver, a builder needs a hammer, a bodybuilder needs weights.

Regarding weights training, it can’t be done just by buying a gym membership without any professional instructions or coaching after someone told you – go boost your metabolism to aid fat loss, but only the people who don’t have metabolic syndrome (also known as insulin resistance) will gain muscles if do it RIGHT.

If you do have metabolic syndrome or insulin resistance (but you probably won’t know it yourself, it is a pre-diabetes syndrome), you will be unable to build muscles and lose weight.  I see those people at gym everyday, and they have not got any results after doing it for years, some of them even over ten years.

I also see people doing wrong at gym everyday. and they are not getting the results to build muscles either, because of ineffective exercises, although they work very hard and sweat a lot instead, they are at high risk of getting injuries.

There are so many people who failed in their weight loss because they did not have a system to help them to do so.  They failed because they did not have the knowledge,  the skills and the tools of fat loss.  They did not know exactly what weight loss is about (it can be muscle loss).  Weight loss must be fat loss – lose body fat not lose muscle.

They did not know how to lose weight or lose body fat and had been fooled by some exciting words or false promises. They were lost on their journey, frustrated and depressed – some of them are unable to lose weight and some of them regained the weight they lost.  Do you want the same results?   or do you want to lose some weight of muscles?  Certainly not!  You want to lose some weight of FAT!

A Fat Loss System needed by the beginners and the failures

If you just start weight loss journey you are reading this now, you are very lucky:-)  as you  know now how to lose weight successfully by a step by step system that can guide you on the journey so you won’t get lost as the others did.   What you need to do is just to follow the system step by step, lose the pounds from the first week and keep them off for ever.

If you have tried fad diet one after another but you are reading this now, you would understand more than those who have not yet tried the diets.  Why the diets did not work? because they are unbalanced and unhealthy, like Ornish, Atikins (read a report on low carb diet on my website),  Lemon Detox (watch a video on my website), they either eliminated fats or carbohydrates, or make you lose muscle mass in stead of losing body fat, so you will regain the weight you lost once you go back to normal food.  But you can successfully achieve your dreams by a system you have never seen before. .

A Fat Loss System needed by people wanting long term weight loss

No one likes to regain the weight he lost, and everyone would like to keep it off for good.  With a fat loss system,  you will not only lose body fat for now but also for your lifetime.

Why diets don’t work? because it is short term solution for long term problems. Take a look at the following – weight control facts:

30% of Americans are trying to lose weight and another 30% are trying to maintain weight.   Americans spend $30 Billion per year on diets and weight control plans.  Two-thirds who lose weight on diets gain it back within 1 year and 98% gain their weight back and more within 2 years.

It is obvious that losing weight needs a step by step system that including everything for you to achieve it.  A system will help you successfully to achieve weight loss for now and  for long term.
