Weight gain What is the weight loss caused by?

Did everyone ever wonder if we were getting heavier or heavier?

What does it cause? The simple answer is "the balance of the kcal energy we receive and spend each day."

⚖️. A simple principle to know.

• What is Kcal?

• Kcal is a unit of energy that the body receives from food and spends on activities.

🔺 weight gain (fatter)

• "Energy In" > "Energy Out"

• You eat more than you use. The body stores this excess energy in fat.

🔻 weight loss (thinner)

• "Energy In" < "Energy Out"

• You eat less than you use. Your body needs to draw energy reserves (fat), causing weight loss.

▪️ constant weight (maintain shape)

• "Energy in," "Energy out."

• The amount of food you eat is equal to the energy you spend on a daily basis.

* * But it's not like losing weight is "eating little or starving."

It's a high-fat diet.

Weight loss in the right way, we have to reduce fat and increase muscle.
