Energy is what the body expends in keeping itself alive. The natural functioning of our organs, such as breathing, digestion, movement and thinking all require the expenditure of energy. We obtain our energy to live from the energy contained in the food we eat. Calories are the unit of measurement of energy present in food.

If the body consumes more calories than it requires, the body stores the excess calories in the form commonly known as fat. When the body expends more energy than it consumes it will start to use its energy stores, i.e. the body will burn fat. So a wonder food, drug or procedure may help you lose weight temporarily but if the habits that initially created the fat gain remain the same, then the fat gain will continue to occur. That is, if the habit to consume more food than the body requires continues, so will the storage of excess calories in the form of fat.

There are two ways to lose fat.

1. Increase the amount of energy expended

The best way to increase the amount of energy the body expends is to increase the amount of exercise the body performs and or the intensity of the exercise performed. For people who don't have time for fitness classes or the gym, fitness weights are the perfect answer. Fitness weights can be fastened to the wrists, ankles and or waist when walking to and from work, when playing with the kids or when doing chores around the house. There are even weights made for use in water. While it may not seem like much, using these weights will increase the intensity of any activity you do and make you really burn those calories.

Owning a few ankle, wrist and hand held weights is also far less expensive than a gym membership or buying a full home gym. Furthermore, while gym memberships and home gyms often go to waste when people lose motivation or struggle to overcome inertia, fitness weights can be seamlessly integrated into ones existing lifestyle and can therefore be easily used for weight loss and fitness improvement for years to come.

2. Decrease the amount of energy consumed

Decreasing ones energy consumption depends not only on reducing the amount of food being eaten, but also being disciplined about the type of food being eaten. Fat and sugar are the two main ingredients of which to be wary. If you look at the nutritional information on butter packaging you will find that every 100g of full fat butter contains around 80g of fat. This equals just over 3000 kilojoules of energy or just over 700 calories. On a pack of sugar you will see that every 100g of sugar contains 1700 kilojoules or approximately 400 calories. Therefore, consuming a number of foods per day that contain even a little of each of these ingredients will result in a high calorie intake for the day.
