Healthy weight loss is defined as weight loss by means of fat loss. No other means of losing weight is acceptable. Losing fat will leave your body at a higher set metabolic rate, helping to sustain your weight loss success.

Food combining is a good diet. The design, if implemented slowly, will lead to healthy weight loss. Muscle, for the most part, will be spared and fat loss maximized.
