How Does Your Body Burn Fat (The Process of Weight Loss)

- Excess energy, primarily calories from fats or carbohydrates, is stored in fat cells as triglycerides. This is how your body conserves energy for future use. Over time, this excess energy leads to a fat surplus, which can have an impact on your body shape and health. To lose weight, you must consume fewer calories than you burn. This is known as a calorie deficit. A daily calorie deficit of 500 calories is a good place to start to see discernible fat loss, though it varies from person to person. Fats are released from fat cells and transported to your body's mitochondria, which are the cells' Energy-producing organelles, by maintaining a steady calorie deficit. Here, the fat is broken down into energy through a series of processes. If the caloric deficit per-sists, your body's fat stores will continue to be used as energy, resulting in a loss of body fat. #shorts #fatloss #weightloss #health

"hey you're so thin now, what's your secret?"
"Poverty"
hahahhaha açım aç :D
People in the western world who live in poverty are actually more overweight than underweight. The poorer you are the more likely you are to be fat
Food bank
I have theory of sorts that says, "Poverty Is A Blessing." Think about it, if you have barely anything thieves can steal or the govt./banks can repo, then poverty is a blessing!
lol
In Germany we see fat people as poor since they can't afford healthy meals.
Fun fact : you'll never have zero fat as shown in the animation. There will always be a layer of fat underneath your skin
Tbf, 5% of body fat and less is so bad. People are feeling like they are sick. Literally disaster.
Not only it is impossible to have 0 percent body fat, but it also looks terrifying on a human or any animals
Yes, fat is a nutrient the body needs. You never want to eliminate it completely. But the context is clear this is to eliminate excess fat
Fun Fact: You also have a dick unlike what is show in the animation. They didn't say you can get your fat to zero duh!
Turkish bodybuilder Hamdullah Aykutlu had something like 3% bodyfat on his glutes, absolutely insane
This is what im looking for instead of listening to a 30min video of an influencer scamming ppl to buy their own brand of weight loss pill and protein powder
Do not eat during night and if you feel hungry eat less, result will be seen within month.
@@anilkumaryadav4357 without eating at night our sleep will be disturbed with hunger, so can we skip breakfast and eating lunch lately?
@@sidheequeche8262 not a good option skipping breakfast is not a good choice
@@sidheequeche8262drink a glass of basil seed or chia seeds water at night to kill hunger...keeps stomach full...no feeling of hunger...High in dietary fiber.. negligible calories..good for constipation
@@sidheequeche8262idk isn't it eassier to sleep when hungry. And skipping breakfast is not a good idea. Eat supper earlier and eat breakfast a little late. 16 hour of intermittent fasting is good

I've never seen someone explain calorie deficit so clear as you
Thanks for watching.
But a calorie deficit does not necessarily lead to the metabolism of fat. Depending on body type and genetics, different people use up fat stores differently, which is why some people have trouble losing fat. Losing weight is not the same as losing fat. Many people lose weight by losing muscle while conserving fat even with a calorie deficit. Their bodiea prefer to consume muscle for energy if there's a calorie deficit because when there's a calorie deficit the body thinks it's starving, and to conserve energy in a starved condition, it reduces the biggest user of energy: muscle, not fat.
To lose fat, you have to do exercises that force the body to use fat for energy.
@@MisterHowzatthanks for this explanation
@@drwealz
Now I know why I have to much energy on my journey
@@MisterHowzatlet's say...eat less and more gym.
i would prefer with that because i can lost weight and fat very fast in a month just doing this.
Finally.. a video that mention an amount of daily calories deficit to see fat loss (500 calories).. I always wonder how much. Tq so much
Sudden drop of calories can be difficult for body to manage .Start of by tracking your all over calories and cutting off Ten Percent Calories Of Overall Diet .
@@Patrickstar351 not only this, it doesnt help him either that his body will get into survival mode, his body will consume his muscle because they are an easier energy source to break down compared to fat, he will lose weight but not fat, mostly muscle mass only, when he cuts a huge number of calories from his daily diet he will see that his weight is going down thus he might think that he is on the right track.
Can someone explain ? Does this mean you have to intake 500 calories a day and burn more ?? Is that right
@@MsTriggaTreit’s not recommended to go any lower than 1200 calories for a deficit, but even then only surviving off of 1200 calories is still not a good idea.
@@MsTriggaTreno they meant you go 500 calories less than your maintenance calories(you can calculate this with a calorie calculator online) but honestly even 200-300 less would be ok, it'll just take longer
I knew I wasn’t fat I’m just full of energy
But all that energy is the amount weight that needs to consume ⚡️⚡️🔥🔥
Specifically energy you don't use-
Important‼️Calorie deficit ≠ starving. You can also be in a calorie deficit by doing bodybuilding and cardio, your body needs energy to build and maintain muscle, which it will get from your fat of you're eating even in a slight deficit.
You wash down mcdoubles with bottles of coke all day it does not matter how many miles you run
@@Alacard0malley exactly this. People need to cut back on sugars/carbs or else all that exercise just becomes a means of maintaining what they already have
@mas-udal-hassan9277it really depends on the person. For myself low-carb made me feel chronically fatigued and always hungry. Meanwhile low-fat was so easy to stick to, giving me so much energy and was so filling that I accidentally cut my fats way too low and my hormones crashed because it was just so easy to not eat anything.
Now i make sure to get my .8g/lb protein, .3g/lb fats, and i can fill the rest of my daily caloric needs with carbs to stay satisfied and energetic.
Everyone is different, for some people low carb has the same effects on them as low fat did for myself, and visa versa. I think its just important to find what works for each individual person (after you take care of meeting nutrition doses) to be successful.
If our body can get energy from stored fats then why to eat in the first place?
@@vaibhav_nitesh you still need other nutrients for enzymatic function, hormone production, and tissue repair.
Technically if you get in all of the nutrients you need to function via pill or injection, then you don't actually need to eat if you have excess bodyfat to pull energy from. However this method doesn't deconstruct bad habits (emotional eating/boredom eating) nor does it instill good habits (eating low calorie nutrient dense foods) so even if you give an overweight person the "nutrient and no food" solution, they'll just revert to their old eating habits and get fat again after that eating pattern ceases. Bodysize is a summation of chronic habit. If you don't change the habits permanently then any changes you'd see would be transient.
There's about 3,500 calories in a pound of body fat. A 500 calorie a day deficit will have you lose about a pound a week.
How do you know what amount of calories is a calorie deficit for yourself at an individual level?
@@balla2828 hight, activity level and muscle mass are a good place to start.
The more muscle you have the more calories and more specifically protein you need to maintain it.
How active you are is obvious. An oil well worker burns more energy than an office worker. Walking a mile burns around a hundred calories, give or take.
Hight, the bigger you are the more calories you need.
What's your goal?
I'm more than 270 lbs means more than 120 kgs can you help me tell me how to lose that much weight ? It's so hard for me cuz I've been obese my whole life I'm only 17😔
@@TheBarbellBandit thank you but why they say to me I can only lose weigh and get healthy through gastric sleeve I can't do surgery ever 😭💔
@@Moon-sv2lr I'd be happy to help you. Do you have any specific questions?
Eat your protein, veggies, fruits and nuts. Figure out how much water you need to drink daily, walk for 30 minutes a day(or just move), get into tea, soups and honey. Focus on the lifestyle vs calorie counting, how your clothes fit and educate yourself on different meal recipes( it doesn’t have to be boring meals), how cooking different herbs enhance the benefits of the meal. I found losing weight is fun when you change your mindset, also do some inner work to see how your relationship with food got the way it is (healthy or unhealthy) loving yourself is the main catalyst for change. This was my less stressful way to lose weight.

Remember people once your body creates a fat cell you never actually “lose” it it just shrinks to a fraction of its original size. Which is why people who use to be fat find they can gain that weight back extremely quickly

@@CreedOnEternity no it does not, calories in calories out, law of thermodynamics, only thing you have to keep in mind is 7000 Cals a week to much is 1kg of fat. Cells don't matter
@@kipdrordy6858 thanks brother
Stop scaring people bro, because you can't gain weight without a calorie surplus. As long as you don't do calorie surplus you can't gain weight no matter the number of fat cells. if you do a surplus of 3500 calories, you can't gain more than one pound, doesn't matter your number of fat cells.
This is straight to the point and concise. Influencers on social media always try to make getting in shape and losing weight sound so complicated. It really isn’t. If you practice long term consistency with clean diet and training, then you can’t lose.
You forgot to explain that if you continue to eat sugar and carbs you will never actually use the fuel that is stored as fat on your body because the body Burns carbs first.
But if you eat in a caloric deficit your body needs to burn something so it burns body fat. And if you only consume fat but you aren't ina caloric deficit your body wull store the unburned calories as fat.
Sugar and carbs are not bad, it’s bad if eaten in excess without exercise!!! Glycogen, carbs play important roles in the body.
Yes maybe if you don’t workout the total amount of carbs you should be consuming is way less then someone who lifts weights and runs 50+ miles a week >.>
@@JasperDD actually high blood sugar causes brain damage. Sugar is literally a neurotoxin but you enjoy it lol I avoid it at all costs and that isn't easy
@@milo6308sadly not. If you have a steady high insulin level, your body will not be able to access the excess fat. But you are right that it needs energy, so what happens? Two things, it will start to use your muscles as energy source and it will downregulate your metabolism. Both things that you don't want to happen. So it is important to keep your insulin level low and you can do this by restricting not only calories but carbs and you can do intermittend fasting.
@@patricksteffard883 This is not supported by any evidence.
Here after 9 years damnn
well explained
Great video, animation, and explanation! Thank you!
Just remember calories are not equal. You can have a calorie deficit all day long but if the calories you're consuming are highly processed and full of sugar you'll still feel both mentally and physically crap. Yeah you'll drop a few pounds because your in a deficit but you won't be healing.
You need to get your insulin under control and eat whole foods.
Stick to the peripheral of stores when food shopping this is where they put all whole foods, produce and meats. Stay away from middle isles this is where "products" (not real food) are sold highly processed, laden with sugar and brand names built like a maze to pull into the centre of the stores and then finally they put it at the tills for that last attempt of impulse buy like "ooo I'll just crab that as a little treat".
Don't eat what your great grandma wouldn't recognise as food.
Don't shop on an empty stomach. (This causes more impulse buys.
Don't buy products that list several ingredients you can't pronounce 😂
Educate yourself on names of sugar they hide it under hundreds of names.
This!
The video and this comment make a perfect match of useful information.👏👏👏👏👏👏
Well yes, don't eat too much sugar.
But it's still just calories in calories out.
Cut down on sugar and eat less calories than you burn, and you will lose weight, done.
Just by consuming calories your body has to work to digest the food and process everything, which in turn burns calories.
also drink a lot of water.
This was very easy tp understand. Thank you
great visual superb job!

Glad I watched, good to know.
Scary fact: Once your body burns through the fats, it started consuming tissue. 😢
Nope. It consumes tissues much more early. So just a simple weight loss means loosing both fat and muscle tissue. Probably muscle first. Because in order to burn fat, your blood needs to have low insulin first. If the insulin is high, the body burns glucose.
@@magneat That's very true if your diet does not contain ample protein and you don't exercise. If you take enough protein to maintain muscle tissue and do some weight training / strength exercises then you most likely will be able to maintain the muscle tissue and lose fat. Right diet is the key. Sugar, soft drinks / sofa, cakes, donuts and all the junk must be completely avoided. Eat healthy and slowly results will come.
@@usermk99 keto diet, and you can burn fat and gain muscle
@@magneat incorrect. The body does not touch muscle tissue unless you do not use it. Your body is smart enough to know that muscle tissue is metabolically demanding, thus it does want to reduce the amount you have if you are in a caloric deficit. However it also knows that you need those muscles to do things. But if you arent using the muscles for anything then it sees no issue in reducing their size, thus as long as you continue to use those muscles (in almost any capacity) then you will not lose those tissues.
Tl;dr. Just work out with weights regularly and stay in a caloric deficit and you will lose fat, not muscle.
Great animation
Great explanation
The lowest you should obtain in body fat in a healthy state is at least 7-8%. Anything lower is a dangerous situation
Your body is a smart machine. Something needs to prompt this fat burning process. Remember that fat burning is also a fuel, and if you use carbohydrates as fuel, you will not prompt your body to burn fat. Why? Carbohydrates prompt insulin, the fat storing hormone, and it does it the most. On top of that, your body uses carbohydrates first before fat on the body. When you eat carbohydrates, you are quite literally both adding fat to your body AND preventing it from using the fat on your body.
To lose body fat, you must get the body fat wheels turning and become fat adapted. There's only two ways to do this: eliminate or severely reduce carbohydrates, and eating less frequently. Calorie deficits aren't enough; your body notices you are depriving yourself of calories, so insulin stubbornly holds onto your fat.
You also need to get a majority of the calories you do get from saturated fat. This far is stable, long straight carbon bonds that are resistant to oxidation. This fat also helps your body know how to use fat as an energy source
Recap:
Eat less often so you don't prompt your insulin
Eat more saturated fat so your body can get used to metabolizing fat as an energy source
Eliminate or severely reduce carbohydrates (20 net carbs maximum)
More importantly, go and walk
😊😊😊thanks
This information has been thoroughly debunked by nutrition scientists over and over again. There is no difference in fat loss between low and high-carb diets when total calories are accounted for. Stop misleading people
@@milo6308 how else does your body metabolize fat without having to use it as a fuel? That is all body fat is, backup fuel. You need to use it to lose it as body fat was intended
These "nutritionists" should never be trusted because when America followed their ignorant advice, obesity, Alzheimer's, vitamin deficiencies, gastrointestinal issues, and heart disease skyrocketed. Yes, these people are the ones debunking me; they have two letters next to their name and a falsified study and you believe them wholesale
you are not even doing keto. but just a "calorie deficit" diet means you can eat all... so why limit 20g carb? that is too much. maybe around 70-120g carb per day to make you function for the day
@@pouringpoipoi5777 Ketosis (the utilization of body fat as a fuel source) is our primary metabolic state. You function way better in this state than using carbohydrates. I know because I am in ketosis and I'm not dysfunctional. Give it a shot: you'll lose nothing but your weight

This is good to an extent, to lose weight, but you don’t want to overdo it and starve your body too much of the food it needs to reach homeostasis. It’s all about reaching that balance so that you can always feel good and normal, at the right weight within your range.
Visual are excellent concept interpreter.
Ah this is what is actually look like
Thanks for telling me!
Thank you so much sir❤..... 🙂
Most welcome 😊
Thank u sir nice guidence
It's about the hormones and the insulin. Once you have that under control, only then can you burn fat. Intermittent fasting and Keto diet... Healthy food and good fats etc..... Success guaranteed!!!
In short dieting 👏👏🙏
Bro got some nice genetics 🧬 ,having 8 packs
After the fats are burned, leptin levels in your blood will drop and will signal the brain: "eat eat... your energy stores are being depleted... think of something juicy, and delicious, and flavorful!"😂

So you want me to lower my daily calorie intake by 500.
Our ancestors lose the ability to break uric acid down in order for us to store fat because of ice age. During ice age our ancestors can’t hunt so in order to survive harsh winter they need to store fats. So our body adapt to the environment and lose the ability to break down uric acid that is why we have uric acid build up.

Still looking forward to breaking my own record at weight loss and fitness training.
Thank you very good informative video I hope you make more videos on Human body please make full video and try to speak easy English to understand other different language
Not strictly true. Not just calories. You must consider the effect of hormones stimulated by certain foods. High glycemic carbohydrates cause increased insulin in the blood which in turn causes fat conservation and storage. The key to fat loss is in cutting out as many carbohydrates as possible. Starches as well as sugars. Cutting out toxic seed oils also will stop damage to mitochondria which will in turn stop the degeneration of metabolic function that causes insulin sensitivity decreasing to save cells from sugar toxicity. If you want to do this easily, go carnivore for a month. It's simple and less expensive and anyone can do it for 30 days. You might expect loose stool as you adapt, but without discomfort in my experience. It's just how your body sheds fat it can't deal with. It's too complicated to deal with calorie deficit plans especially if you're like most of us, addicted so that we crave sweets. In the end hunger always wins out. It's like trying to hold your breath. The only thing that can reliably keep you on the program is eating fat in your meat. The fat is the only thing that will keep you satiated without stimulating insulin and fat storage.
You probably took like 5 hours to write this but only 3 likes 😂😢
Good but you can’t go on only meat for the rest of your life tbh. For a specific time period that might be a solution but if you consider eating healthy, stay in shape and be healthy for the entire your life isn’t just using diet programs. Real change comes with mentality. But carnivore diet is good to not gonna lie in the end.
Have told anyone else about this? Cause this is revolutionary,
Well, For me.. High stress levels Made me lose weight a bit quick… 😄 But I am a bit still fat

If you have a slow metabolism take vitamins to speed it up. B vitamins, iron, and magnesium.

However, there exists another form of fat known as visceral fat. Unlike subcutaneous fat, this type of fat is situated beneath the muscle instead of being located above it. This is the reason why your abdomen feels firm rather than soft. It is lost through the same process of creating a caloric deficit, but it poses a greater risk to your overall health. It is crucial to prioritize the elimination of this type of fat promptly, as it can have detrimental effects on your well-being.
What are these risks if I may ask?
@@grannygenes3530 The risks associated with having excessive amounts of visceral fat are:
1. Cardiovascular diseases
2. Type 2 diabetes
3. Metabolic syndrome
4. Increased risk of certain cancers
5. Liver disease
6. Sleep apnea
7. Reduced lung function
@@grannygenes3530^this is because they grow around and inside your organs directly and can cause issues with how they function.
remember that a certain amount of body fat is healthy and necessary.

Conversion of fats into energy is a long process where there are mainly 3 steps, activation of fatty acid,transport of fatty acid to the mitochondria and beta oxidation of fatty acid
1) activation -Fatty acid is converted to fatty acyl CoA by thiokinase or fattyacyl CoA synthetase.
2) transport -The inner mitochondrial membrane doesn’t permit fatty acids to pass through it.The activated FA enter mitochondria through carnitine shutter.
This occurs in 4 steps:
Fatty acyl coA is transferred to carnitine to form fatty acyl carnitine. This is catalyzed by enzyme carnitine acyl transferase I (CAT-I) present on outer surface of mitochondria.
Then acyl carnitine enters into matrix through carnitine shutter.
Fatty acyl carnitine is converted into fatty acyl CoA by an enzyme carnitine acyl transferase II (CAT-II) formed in inner mitochondrial membrane.
The carnitine is released and return to cytosol for re-use.
3)Beta oxidation of fatty acid-
Which occurs in 4 steps
Step 1- dehydrogination
Fatty acyl coA reacts with acyl coA dehydrogenase to form trans2enoyl coA
Step-2- Hydration
Water is added to saturate
the double bond and form 3-hydroxyacyl-CoA,
catalyzed by Δ 2-enoyl-CoA
hydratase.
Step-3-
Oxidation
The 3-hydroxy derivative
undergoes further
dehydrogenation on the
3-carbon catalyzed by
L(+)-3-hydroxyacylCoA dehydrogenase to
form the corresponding
3-ketoacyl-CoA
compound. In this case,
NAD+ is the coenzyme
involved.
Step-4- Thiolysis
3-ketoacyl-CoA is
split at the 2,3-
position
by thiolase (3-
ketoacyl-CoAthiolase), forming
acetyl-CoA and a
new acyl-CoA two
carbons shorter
than the original
acyl-CoA
molecule.
BETA OXIDATION- ENERGY
YIELD
2.5 ATPs per NADH = 17.5
1.5 ATPs per FADH2 = 10.5
10 ATPs per acetyl-CoA = 80
Total = 108 ATPs
2 ATP equivalents (ATP
PPi
AMP + PPi
2 Pi)
consumed during activation of palmitate to
Palmitoyl CoA
Net Energy output- 108-2 = 106 ATP.
Well,got my revision done for the semister exams🤣
If you could make a video on beta oxidation of fatty acid,,Krebs cycle ,urea cycle it would help many.this thing is hard to visualise while studying so would help many students 🙏
When you have no food to eat 😂..
Another fact not shown in the animation. Visercal fat, the fatty tissues lining your abdominal cavity and what surrounds your main abdominal organs are more metabolically active than subcutaneous fat. Which is why it is 'difficult' to notice weight loss because the fat being reduced is not the fat you can see on the surface of your body.
This process is called Ketosis where your body us only fat energy as fuel without eating. Also, it is great to help people with low metabolism but the lousy effect can cause loss of muscle tissue.
