which are the types of fat in the stomach
Whether you're an apple shape with excess belly fat, or a pear with wide hips and thighs, when you lose weight you'll most likely lose proportionately more from the abdominal region than elsewhere. The type of fat that is responsible for the â beer bellyâ shape is called visceral fat. Visceral fat (the fat surrounding your vital organs) is more metabolically active than subcutaneous fat (the fat just under your skin) so it tends to burn off quicker.
