EzineArticles.com: To lose a few pounds, prevent obesity, or treat obesity we should work exclusively to lose fat – not weight. “Weight loss” refers to a total number of pounds lost; “fat loss” involves a more sophisticated body composition number (including fat, muscle, bone, tissue, etc.). Tips to lose fat include: 1.) Do regular cardio work within your fat burning zone (target heart rate); 2.) Provide resistance for your muscles with weights or your body weight; 3.) Favor foods with protein and experiment taking in lower amounts of carbs.
