Weight loss, in the context of medicine, health or physical fitness, is a reduction of the total body mass,
due to a mean loss of fluid, body fat or adipose tissue and/or lean mass.  

The ideal weight loss would equate to fat loss and retention of muscle mass or even an increase in muscle mass to also help increase your metabolic rate. 

This will make your weight loss easier and more likely to be permanent.
