Where does the fat go?
My brother and I were talking the other day about where the fat actually goes? We thought perhaps it gets burned up? Maybe you sweat it out or pee it out? Gets excreted as waste? We didn't have a definitive answer so we took to the internets and found a very informative video I thought I'd share with you all.
There is a TED Talk called "The Mathematics of Weight Loss" (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vuIlsN32WaE) that explains the answer with visuals and details. Fascinating really. In case you don't have time to watch the video, the answer is that the majority of it gets exhaled. I never would have thought that. But the speaker has an Australian accent and is pretty entertaining. Hope you enjoy as much as I did.

Eat clean. Look clean. Work hard. Fit Happens.
It's not just the weight you lose, but the life you gain. You will soon fall in love with taking care of yourself, your body, your mind, and your spirit and you execute from the inside out.

I always thought it came out in waste but also just learned that we exhale most of it; it was fascinating!
