You get fat around the belly for the same reason you get fat build-up anywhere else on the body – you’re consuming more energy (calories) than the body is using. When this happens that excess energy gets stored in the body as fat. You’ll never be able to get rid of your stomach fat – or any stubborn fat for that matter – unless you’re burning more energy than you’re taking in (typically through a sensible combination of diet and exercise). It’s more difficult to shift belly fat because it has a higher amount of fat cells that don’t respond as easily to the fat-breakdown process (lipolysis). In fact, your stomach fat tends to release more slowly than from other areas of the body. This is because these fat cells have a different type of receptor than normal fat cells – they have what is known as “alpha-receptor” instead of “beta receptors,” which release fat faster.
