Weight loss.                                                           Weight loss generally involves reducing body fat through a combination of dietary, physical activity, and lifestyle changes. The goal is to create a calorie deficit, where you burn more calories than you consume, which prompts the body to use stored fat for energy.                                                                  Principles of Weight Loss.                                 Caloric Deficit.                                                     The fundamental principle behind weight loss is consuming fewer calories than the body needs for maintenance. This can be achieved by eating smaller portions, choosing lower-calorie foods, and increasing physical activity.                                                Dietary Strategies.                                              Balanced diet:                                  Emphasizing fruits, vegetables, lean proteins, and whole grains while reducing intake of processed foods high in saturated fats, sugar, and salt.                                            Meal planning:                                          Regular eating patterns, mindful eating, and avoiding late-night eating are important for controlling calorie intake and avoiding overeating.                                                         Specific diets:                                                Low-carb, low-fat, ketogenic, and Mediterranean diets are popular, but long-term adherence and personal preference are crucial for success.                                            Physical Activity.                                  Increasing physical activity, especially aerobic exercises and strength training, helps burn calories and preserve muscle mass during weight loss.                                   Lifestyle Factors                                      Adequate sleep (7-9 hours), stress management, and hydration are important supporting factors for sustainable weight loss.                                                                     Additional Tips                                              Self-monitoring (food and activity logs) boosts accountability and success .                    Realistic goals (about 1-2 pounds per week) promote sustainable weight loss .  Consistency and long-term lifestyle changes are more effective than quick-fix diets
