Weight Loss vs Fat Loss

Let's start by saying there is a difference in weight loss and fat loss.
  • Fat loss is when you decrease you body fat and maintain your lean body mass (muscle). This is good!
  • Weight loss can mean you lose fat, water and muscle. This is bad.

Weight Loss: Anyone can loss weight (in the beginning), by simply not eating. Now here is what happens when you do this. You lose some fat, water, and the most important tissue to your body, Muscle. As most of you know who have tried this approach you can’t go long before you have to start eating again and when you do, you gain back the fat and the water but not the muscle, therefore lowering your metabolism. (Your metabolism is your bodies ability to burn calories). Then this becomes a cycle, don’t eat, lose weight, eat, gain weight. This will work for a while until your body catches on and you have burn up most of your muscle tissue. Then it just will not work any more. So you get bigger and bigger and that becomes the cycle.

Fat Loss: This is the most optimal and effective way to lose weight and keep it off. Why? Because you maintain your metabolism by maintaining your muscle. Think of muscle as your engine. The more muscle you have the faster your engine runs, burning calories like crazy.

We love the fact that our Phase 2 hCG really does burn the Adipose fat , which is what we do not want on our bodies.
