Belly fat in upper abdomen
I have always had a little more fat around the upper abdomen which I find concerning. It's been since most of my early years. I am not a very active person but I do cardio and cycling from time to time. I am not obese as well and have a weight of about 56 kgs with 5"1' height. Although fat in this region seems little unusual. What is the reason to this? What should I practice or take to get rid of this? Is this a serious problem?

Hello!
Start your diet with a detox water
Reduce carb intake and increase your protein intake.
Greetings from Dietitian Souvik Chakraborty,
I can understand your concern about healthy diet, for getting excellent results in diet plan, you need to follow some golden rule of healthy diet, like taking meal in regular intervals, taking water in interval, doing exercises in fixed pattern & post /pre exercise home made food must be added, which is lacking in your present diet, and sleep patterns or duration have huge effect on long term results. If you want to modify your diet on irreversible manner, you need to follow some diet protocol, & you will enjoy doing this & love to follow the same.
I will love to help you for the same, you can directly contact me for understanding your detailed requirement.
Thanks & regards,
Dietitian Souvik Chakraborty
