Does anyone have visceral fat around their tummy? I’m 28F and people will look at me and thing I’m thin. However, if you were to see me in tight clothes, a crop top, or bikini you would see that all my fat is concentrated in a circle around my tummy/hips. Other than that area, I would look pretty fit. Obv diet and exercise is key and I have begun focusing on the foods I eat more. Is there any other specific advice anyone can give for getting rid of visceral fat?

If we are being honest here no. Besides diet and exercise, there are no other options that actually work. The truth is people hold fat in different places.

For me a male, I can be relatively lean (ab definition), but until I get to a certain weight I will hold lower back fat. It’s also the first place that I notice when I gain weight.

I will say, there is some information out there about redistribution of fat, which basically means after you lose the fat that is concerning to you and if you so happen to regain, it may appear differently as you regain weight, which could be good or bad.
