On these we had to say if the sentence is Prepositional phrase, Participial, Gerund phrase, Infinitive phrase, or Appositive phrase. 1. Losing weight gradually gives the body time to adjust. I can not figure out if it is an Infinitive phrase, or Participial phrase.

"Losing weight" is a gerund phrase.
"To adjust" is an infinitive.
