When I lose weight, where does it go?
Do I poop it out?
>>36757230
heat & sweat mostly
>>36757230
Poop, digestion, energy exertion, moisture exhalation, urination, etc.

Well, according to Andrew Brown from the University of New South Wales and Australian TV personality (slash former physicist) Ruben Meerman, when you lose weight, you exhale your fat. Their new calculations, based on existing knowledge about biochemistry, were published in the British Medical Journal this week.
“There is surprising ignorance and confusion about the metabolic process of weight loss,” Brown says in a news release. “The correct answer is that most of the mass is breathed out as carbon dioxide,” Meerman adds. “It goes into thin air.”

True, they don't go away, but it's not a race against time. If you don't eat at a surplus they'll never expand again. This reads like some body acceptance bullshit to justify laziness by claiming weightloss is a sisyphean task.

the fat in your adipose tissue are triglycerides. they go through a beta oxidation process in order to reduce electron carriers NAD(P) and FAD to fuel the electron transport chain, which eventually produces ATP. The carbon atoms from your fatty acid chains are converted into CO2, which are breathed out by your body.

It gets used as ATP, child.
Creatine Phosphate system - first energy reserve, used in 10-30 seconds or the first few reps
Glycogen then, is a result of carbohydrates, is then broken down through hydrolysis and broken down to ATP. 30 seconds - 1 min 6-12 reps?
Then, the krebs cycle is when your body oxidates fat to be broken down into ATP.
1 min or anything higher than 12 reps
Fun fact: Your body at rest oxidates fat for energy, and after lifting it oxidates it at a more efficient and faster rate.
So, when you exercise, it is used in energy expendature, then later for energy replenishment (provided you eat), and then later at rest for various housekeeping things

Doesn't matter. If you eat at excess, you get fat, regardless of whether you were fat before. You may get fat a little bit easier if you have more fat cells, but there's not too much of a difference.

It's kind of amazing how many people think any significant amount of mass leaves via heat.

>>36760782
I guess I should elaborate. Everybody starts out somewhere. The energy things other than nuclear reactions use is in chemical bonds. Sometimes two different molecules, even though they contain the same atoms, have different energy levels. Going from the higher energy to the lower one means energy is released somehow, typically as heat, but sometimes as light.

You exhale it.
Everything you shit out is only the parts of the food that were not digested. Shit never enters your body, it only passes through the tunnel between your mouth and anus.
The fat cells and muscle cells that are broken down by your body for energy when you exert yourself at a caloric deficit are oxidized (burned) and the literal result of this is carbon dioxide and water vapor which you exhale out. The human body is an amazing fucking machine.

When running make sure your breaths are controlled.
When lifting breathe out as you push/pull. Gives you more strength to get those reps in and is the proper breathing technique.

Hi mom. Flame on.
>>36757230
Most of your weight fluctuation is water. Your body will fluctuate up to three pounds a day from just dehydration and hydration.
Also because water is 60-70% of your body mass, 60-70% of genuine weight lost is also water.
>>36759014
FLAME ON LITTLE CANDLE
>>36764328
He isn't wrong.
For every pound of fat you lose you have to expel a certain amount of cu.ft of co2.
Breathing right helps you lift and run better which helps in your fat loss.

No.
Basically, carbonium atoms in molecules such as carbs and fats have a certain energy, which depends on the chemical bonds they form with other groups. When you burn these molecules you use this energy, and in the process you obtain CO2.
In short: the more bonds the carbonium has with oxygen, the lower the energy associated with it is. In CO2 the carbonium has two double bonds with the oxygen, so it is a low-energy molecule.
It's not different from a regular combustion really.

THIS THREAD IS ON FIIIIIIRE
by weight, i assume you mean fat and water
you lose the water by sweat wee and exhaling
you lose the fat by turning it into energy (kinetic heat etc, maybe body functions im not a biologist)
when you losing weight (fat or muscle) you are expending more energy (calories) than you consume
>>36767179
>you lose the fat by turning it into energy (kinetic heat etc, maybe body functions im not a biologist)
nah dude, that's impossible. matter can be transformed to energy but if so like half a gram would be enough to power your body for a year or something in that ballpark. You lose the fat by physically removing it from the body like any other molecules
>>36767179
You don't turn a measurable amount of matter into energy, dipshit. Energy is released through combustion as new chemical bonds are formed. You turn CHO, fats and proteins into carbon dioxide and water, which you expire.
