Belly fat – wouldn’t it be nice if we just all had flat stomachs? The fact is that belly fat is a problem for a lot of people, even for thin people. Sometimes people don’t even realize what a problem it is as some of the fat hides inside you surrounding your inner organs which can possible cause a health threat if you have too much fat regardless of your size.
So where did all that belly fat come from and what can you do about it?
Before continuing on, it’s important to understand that your body does need some fat and that this isn’t about being judgmental but about allowing you to be healthier and to feel better about yourself by getting leaner.
Location, Location, Location
Not all fat is the same… it can behave differently depending on where it’s located and that’s key to the health risks that it can pose.
People typically store fat in two ways:
- It can be under the skin in the butt, hips, thighs and abdomen. This type of fat is called subcutaneous fat (it’s located under the skin).
- Another type of fat is the one that’s inside around your vital organs such as your heart and lungs, in the chest and abdomen as well. This type of fat is called visceral.
You can think of it this way: subcutaneous fat can visually be seen while visceral fat can’t.

The thing is, dieting doesn’t have to be boring or completely restrictive. If you learn how to eat properly and healthy, you really can eat anything you want. The key is moderation.
