Weight Loss

Health and Wellness -weight loss

Many people ask how much fat and lean body mass should one aim to lose whilst dieting

Experts have determined that:

* During the early weeks of weight loss, At least 75 percent of the weight you lose should be fat loss and not more than 25 percent should come from lean body mass. * As you continue to lose weight, especially if certain types of exercise are included in your weight loss plan, fat loss should be about 90 percent of the weight you lose and lean body mass should be about 10 percent.

FIVE REASONS FOR KNOWING YOUR BODY FAT

* It gives you a better measure of fitness than your weight alone.
* It will give you a better idea of your health risk.
* It prevents you from being misclassified based on your weight. The scale can label you “overweight” even if you are not “over fat” or it can label you “normal weight” even if you have too much body fat.
* It lets you know the composition of your weight loss when you are losing weight. Your health depends on losing body fat and preserving lean body mass.
* It can help you identify fad diets that promote water loss and the loss of your lean body mass, especially muscle.
