Where does fat go after you lose it?

Question

After you lose fat, where is it?

Answer 1

it goes to a secret place called HELL!!

Answer 2

You really don't lose fat. The fat cells shrink down, but they never leave the body. When you burn more calories (energy) than you consume, your body uses the stored energy in the fat cells. That's about as simple as you can get. Well, the only way you actually lose fat cell is with Liposuction...then they go in a canister and to hazardous waste;-)

Answer 3

Fat acutally never leaves your body. Your just reduce the cell volume by burning it up. The only way to really remove the fat tissue is to get Lipo. And to have a reduced calorie intake will help to maintain a leaner BMI.

Answer 4

Technically, the fat cells don't "go" anywhere, they simply shrink down. That's why diets aren't the total solution for weight-loss. The only way to totally get rid of fat is surgically, but proper diet,and exercise will keep those little suckers small.

Answer 5

Fat cells shrink, they don't just go away - except with liposuction. The excess fat is disposed of with bodily waste through the digestive tract and the pores, like any other waste material.

Answer 6

Fat gets burned and sometimes turned into muscle.

Answer 7

Actually I believe a lot of it is flushed out of your system, I.E., you, er, liquidate it, lol? That is supposedly why it is important to drink a lot of water when trying to lose weight, as it will help this along. At least that is what I have read.

Answer 8

the body breaks up the fat and hopefully turns it into muscle.

Answer 9

down the toilet. water and food turn into fat and you lose it by going to the bathroom, or you sweat it out.i

Answer 10

Your body metabolizes it just like that delicious chocolate chip cookie you regret eating.
