A calorie deficit:
occurs when you consume fewer calories than your body needs to maintain its current weight. This deficit forces your body to use stored energy (mainly from fat) to meet its energy demands, resulting in weight loss.
Here are 2 main reasons on why it helps you lose fat ⬇️
Fat Utilization: To make up for the energy deficit, your body starts using stored fat as a source of energy.
Weight Loss: Over time, this continuous calorie deficit leads to a reduction in body fat, resulting in weight loss.
It's important that we create a sustainable calorie deficit that is not too extreme, as very low-calorie diets can be unhealthy and difficult to maintain.
A moderate calorie deficit, combined with a balanced diet and regular exercise, is a more sustainable and healthy approach to losing weight.
