Obesity is one of the most common problems suffered by millions around the world. They involve themselves in several processes or exercises to reach their desired weight; sometimes it may work, the other times it may not. According to experts, weight loss cannot reduce the accumulated fat alone, one has to follow a proper routine. But first, we must know the difference between weight loss and fat loss.

According to Kamini Sinha, who is the founder and senior dietician at Diet Mantra Clinic, Noida, weight loss and fat loss are vastly different. She says that our body loses weight when it lacks water. An individual can see a difference in their weight after fasting or eating less for a few days. Sudden weight loss can also indicate an underlying disease. However, weight loss does not dissolve the visible fat in our bodies. The overall decrease in body weight is called weight loss.

The expert states further that commonly, people have around 25 per cent to 30 per cent of fat in their bodies. When people improve their lifestyle through better diet and exercise, it leads to fat reduction in the body, leading to weight loss. This is called fat loss. Fat loss does not harm the muscles or dehydrate the body.

Here are some tips to lose fat:

– Avoid starving yourself and keep your belly full by consuming small meals, throughout the day. Take a high-fibre diet and drink 3 to 4 litres of water a day.

– Include exercises in your daily routine. Activities like yoga and stretching are very good for losing weight.

– Improve your sleeping habits. To keep your weight healthy, you must sleep for 7 to 8 hours, every night. It will also help with hormonal imbalances in the body.

– Try to change your lifestyle. Make sure to take three meals a day: breakfast, lunch and dinner. Consume seasonal fruits and vegetables, while avoiding fast food.
