Why You Should Monitor Changes in Muscle Mass During a Diet

Just because you have lost weight does not necessarily mean that you have achieved healthy weight loss.

If you drastically reduce your food intake or lose weight without exercise, your muscle mass may also decrease.

A decrease in muscle mass can affect basic physical functions and daily activities.

Therefore, rather than just checking the numbers on the scale, you should examine changes in muscle mass, body fat percentage, and physical fitness together.

It is important to establish a diet and exercise plan that can be maintained in the long term.
