What is the weight on the equator than at the Poles?
Yes, You weigh less on the equator than at the North or South Pole, but the difference is small.
Note that your body itself does not change.
Rather it is the force of gravity and other forces that change as you approach the poles. These forces change right back when you return to your original latitude.
In short, a trip to the equator is not a viable long-term weight-loss program.
Your weight is the combination of all the large-scale, long-term forces on your body. While the earth's gravity is by far the strongest large-scale force, it is not the only one.
We experience as "something pulling you down" is actually the total of all the forces and not just gravity.
The four dominant large-scale, long-term forces are:
The earth's gravity
The sun's gravity
The moon's gravity
The earth's centrifugal force
Hence, the weight of a body at the equator will be less than at the Poles.
