    If you’re still regenerating tissue, your body is still producing weight. Drastically reduced (I’d guess by 75% total, of which 2/3 is dead digestive bacteria you’d no longer need), but still existent.

    Fun fact, you don’t defecate out weight loss, either. You exhale carbon in CO2

        Not effectively. You’ll just have a lower concentration of CO2 in your exhaled air. Maybe it’ll stay the same with the increase in exertion by breathing more, but that’d be a good way to estimate how little energy your breathing consumes compared to proper exercise. And after all that, exercise is pretty slow to burn calories as well. The good news is your brain burns calories by thinking harder, an activity we’re both now involved in
