  • Where does the fat go when you lose weight?

  • Santa Claus takes it away.

  • No.

  • Our food contains nutrients like carbohydrates, fats and proteins.

  • When we eat food, these nutrients give us energy and help us to grow.

  • However, when we eat excess amount of these nutrients.

  • Our body stores them as triglycerides in fat or adipose cells for later use.

  • This ultimately results in weight gain.

  • Now, according to a prevailing research, when we try to lose weight.

  • We actually breakdown these triglycerides in the presence of oxygen.

  • Converting them into carbon dioxide, water and energy.

  • What?

  • My fat turns into carbon dioxide, water and energy?

  • Yes.

  • We exhale the carbon dioxide gas.

  • Water is given out in the form of urine, sweat or tears.

  • Whereas, we use the energy to perform various activities.
