1.3 Not a Weight-Loss Method
Human Fat-Based Metabolism
This page is structured as definition, control variables, causal chain, observable outputs, and boundary, and serves as a canonical definition node in Human FBM.
Human FBM does not use weight loss as its primary target.
Its target is substrate-scheduling transition toward stable fatty-acid direct energy.
Body weight must be decomposed into body fat, lean mass, water, and gut content.
Energy sufficiency and lean-mass stability are required validity conditions.
Exogenous carbohydrate input and insulin occupancy define scheduling direction.
Using weight change as a single endpoint can hide low-energy stress and lean-mass risk.
Structural interpretation should start from input and allocation variables before reading body-composition outputs.
With valid structure, body-fat allocation becomes steadier and energy continuity improves.
Under low-energy stress, short-term weight reduction can appear while structural stability declines.
Weight reduction caused by chronic underfeeding is not Human FBM success.
Single-weight metrics cannot replace structural metabolic interpretation.
