What does weight loss actually mean?

Weight loss occurs when we eat less than we expend (including all of our body’s ways to use energy, exercise bring a relatively small part). Most diets will result in weight loss if followed strictly for 6 weeks. One of the biggest issues lies in if it's sustainable. If we are pushing our body to a lower body weight or starving it and slowing our metabolism, it will fight to protect itself.
