The whole idea about Weight-Loss is to lose as much weight as you desire to, but you end up losing your muscle mass as well. To do the Weight-Loss method it's pretty simple; big caloric deficit and a ton of cardio work. People who want to do Weight-Loss have to has a caloric deficit for about 800-1000 caloric deficit from daily calories intake. Average calories intake is 2000-2500 calories, depend on the body weight. People who do Weight-Loss will struggle or even can't gain their muscle mass. Therefore, people who want to gain muscle and lose weight at the same tine  have to go for Fat-Loss method.

Fat-Loss method is not as easy as Weight-Loss method. The main goal about Fat-Loss is to lose weight and gain the muscle mass at the same tine. For calories intake, you don't have to do a significant amount of caloric deficit. You only have to reduce around 300-500 caloric deficit from normal calories intake, 2000-2500 calories. And since Fat-Loss method is losing weight and gain muscle as well, you have to have enough protein intake in purpose to gain muscle weight. The formula for enough protein intake is 1 lbs (body weight) X 0,8-1 Gr (protein). And if Weight-Loss exercise is all about cardio, Fat-Loss only use cardio as a tool. The rest of  is weight-lifting exercise such ass Bench-Press to train Pecs, Shoulder-Press to train Delts, Deadlift for Lats and Squat for Legs.

Weighted Blankets For A Better Nights Rest
