When a person looses weight, were does it go? How does it leave your body?


Question:
I know diet and excersize make you loose weight, but I want to know how does it leave your body?

Answers:
Your body uses it up from the fat it has stored. In other words, if you increase your exercise, decrease the amount of food you eat, or preferably both, your body needs to go into the reserve supplies to keep functioning. Those "reserve supplies" are your excess fat. The body converts the fat to energy, which it sends to the cells in order to keep them functioning. The unusable parts of the stored fat are removed the same way that anything else unusable is removed (through urine and feces). The rest gets used up in the cells.

Other Answers:
You burn it. You use the food use the stuff in it for exercise. also in sweat.
it goes down the toilet.

If I'm not mistaken, the fat cells actually shrink. They are still there, in your body, just smaller.
Everyone was born with so many fat cells. They grow in size if you feed them fatty things, such as pizza, cheeses, sugars, or when you go on a diet, or stop eating these things, the fat cells shrink and get alot smaller. There it is in a nutshell without getting complicated!
Most of it leaves your body in your feces and urine. As you loose weight, your fat cells are broken up and absorbed into the blood steam. Your kidneys and large intestine absorb the waste products out of your blood to evacuate it from the body. Either way, its is coming out and going into the toilet.
Fat turns into muscle! That's where it goes.that's what happen.
