How do you actually lose fat? Like, how does it come out of your body? Does this happen while sweating, sleeping or do you pee it out? I am curious.

We exhale most of it, sweat is some, the rest goes into the toilet.
Carbon and water are the remaining products of fat burning. We exhale 99% of the carbon. A tiny amount of carbon goes in urine. And the water is excreted through exhaling, urination, and sweating.

Oooh. Science. I always imagined a little fairy came in the night and sucked it out of me with her magic powers.0

If this is a real question: think of your body as an engine. When fuel burns in your car, it ejects the products of combustion as CO2 and water. Your body is similar.
A more complete answer can be found pretty much in any physiology book.0 -
