Category: Weight Loss

Weight loss refers to the process of reducing body mass, specifically body fat, often achieved through a combination of dietary changes, increased physical activity, and lifestyle modifications. It typically occurs when the number of calories consumed is less than the number of calories burned, creating a caloric deficit. Weight loss can be pursued for various reasons, including improving health, enhancing physical appearance, or increasing overall fitness. It is often measured in terms of pounds or kilograms and can be associated with a range of health benefits, such as reduced risk of chronic diseases like diabetes, heart disease, and certain cancers. Weight loss strategies may include adopting a balanced diet, engaging in regular exercise, and sometimes, behavioral changes or medical interventions.
