Some venues featured on the Spabreak Online Magazine have programmes specifically geared to weight loss. This is particularly true of Health Farms, to some extent at Health Spas and less so at Spa Hotels which offer similar facilities to Health Farms and Health Spas but have restaurants which cater for all tastes and therefore, it is highly unlikely that the hotel restaurants are suitable for a specific weight loss programme although most menus do include light diet options. If you are specifically looking to lose weight and need some help in doing this, then you are probably advised to select a Health Farm
Weight loss is a decrease in body weight resulting from either voluntary ( diet, exercise) or involuntary (illness) circumstances. Most instances of weight loss arise due to the loss of body fat, but in cases of extreme or severe weight loss, protein and other substances in the body can also be depleted. Examples of involuntary weight loss include the weight loss associated with cancer, malabsorption (such as from chronic diarrheal illnesses ), and chronic inflammation (such as with rheumatoid arthritis).
Weight loss, in the context of medicine or health, is a reduction of the total body weight, which can mean loss of fluid, muscle or bone mass, or fat.
Weight Loss is a 2006 novel by Upamanyu Chatterjee.
