How Fat Loss Actually Works

What you’ll learn

Fat loss happens when your body is in an energy deficit over time, the same mechanism from the Foundation nutrition lessons, just applied consistently for longer. Nothing about it is more complicated than that, even though it's often made to sound like it is.

Key takeaways

Fat loss is the same deficit principle from Foundation, sustained over weeks and months.
No food or supplement bypasses this, the deficit is what's actually doing the work.
Losing fat is slower and less linear than most people expect going in.
A deficit you can sustain will always outperform one you can't stick to.

Your action

If your current approach doesn't feel sustainable, that's worth changing before you go any further with it, not something to push through.
