For millions battling stubborn fat, weight loss often feels like a never-ending rollercoaster — full of diets, gym memberships, and fleeting results. But according to celebrity nutritionist Dr. Siddhant Bhargava, who has guided stars like Alia Bhatt, the secret to sustainable weight loss isn’t found in fancy diets or miracle drinks.
The Real Science Behind Fat Loss
In a YouTube video, Dr. Bhargava explained that body burns fat only when you eat fewer calories than you burn. When your daily intake dips below your body’s energy needs, it taps into stored fat for fuel. This biological process, he says, is the foundation of every successful weight-loss plan — whether it’s keto, intermittent fasting, or low-carb diets. Without a calorie deficit, none of them work.
Creating That Calorie Deficit
There’s no one-size-fits-all trick here. Some prefer eating smaller meals or cutting down on junk food, while others exercise more to burn extra calories. What matters, Dr. Bhargava stresses, is consistency — choosing a method that fits your lifestyle so you can actually stick to it.
No “Magic” Diet Exists
Forget the fad diets and celebrity meal plans — they may work for some, but not for everyone. Dr. Bhargava says, “There’s no magic diet that melts fat overnight.” Instead, he urges people to design a plan that matches their body type, routine, and goals. Track your calories, eat smart, move more, and the results will follow.
Simple Tips to Stay on Track
Log your daily meals to keep an eye on calories.
Fill your plate with veggies, lean protein, and whole foods.
Walk, jog, or lift weights — any movement counts.
Avoid crash diets promising instant results.
Seek guidance from certified dietitians or doctors.
What Research Says
Science backs Dr. Bhargava’s advice. A review in Obesity Reviews confirms that calorie deficit — through diet, exercise, or both — leads to significant fat loss. Another study in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition found that people who focused on calorie control achieved better long-term results than those chasing trendy diets.
