The Surprising Science of Weight Loss

When somebody loses weight, where does it go? If you’ve never thought to ask, join Ruben Meerman for some cocktails and canapés as he explains the fascinating science of weight loss with live demonstrations and experiments.
What becomes of the missing mass when the numbers on your bathroom scales start going down? How do those excess kilograms vacate your body and how do you make it happen? Can you really target tummy fat with sit ups? Do you really have to eat “healthy” or can junk food only diets make you thin too? Do you need a personal trainer to torture you back into shape or are there gentler ways?
You’ll never look at food or exercise the same way again and if you are carrying a few extra kilos, you’ll know precisely how to lose them. How knows, you might even be motivated to do so.
Ruben Meerman is a much sought after science presenter widely featured on the ABC and other media and delights in engaging audiences in the fun of science.
