Why Is There A Difference Between Weight Loss And Fat Loss?

Your bathroom scale might be lying to you. That dropping number doesn't tell the whole story of what your body is actually losing. Are you shedding valuable muscle along with fat? Are you sacrificing your metabolism for temporary results?

Licensed nutritionist Catina Wilson tackles the crucial distinction between weight loss and fat loss in this eye-opening episode. When you understand that weight loss encompasses everything—water, muscle, and fat—while fat loss specifically targets adipose tissue while preserving muscle, you'll approach your health journey differently. Catina explains why excess fat contributes to numerous health conditions and why focusing exclusively on scale numbers can lead to frustrating cycles of weight regain.

Strength training emerges as the unsung hero of effective fat loss. While many women avoid weights fearing "bulkiness," Catina debunks this myth and reveals how resistance training supercharges metabolism to burn fat even at rest. She shares practical protein strategies to preserve muscle during caloric deficits and explains why crash diets backfire by triggering muscle loss instead of fat reduction. With insights on effective tracking methods beyond the scale, including body composition analysis and macro monitoring, this episode provides a comprehensive roadmap for sustainable body transformation.
