How is fat loss actually take place?
I know when you gain muscle your muscle breaks down then builds itself back up and then some.
But when you lose fat when are you actually losing the fat, during your workout? or does it take place at a different time?

Calories are burned during exercise for fuel, but carbohydrates are burned preferentially over fat. After your body has used up its available sugar it will start to release fat into the blood stream for energy.
You do burn calories during exercise, but diet is also part of the picture. If you eat fewer calories than you burn in a day you are going to lose more weight, and that is going to happen over the whole day.
