My name is Jackie, 20 years old, 128 pounds around. I am trying to be healthy and exercise too. I really don't know if losing belly fat is a weight loss. Whenever I sit down to eat my belly starts to expand as if i was pregnant which i am not. I do not eat as much due to my stomach pain, but I do want to eat healthy and sometimes have a cheat day with junk foods, but my main concern is my belly.
Answered by Jamie Kerem Hi Jackie,
Yes losing belly fat is weight loss.
Do not worry, even at 8% body fat my stomach expands when I'm sitting. That's a normal movement from your body.
What kind of stomach pain do you currently have?
A cheat day would involve eating clean the other 6 days of the week. Do you follow a certain eating protocol?
Cheat day's are mainly used for when you go low carb for lengthy periods (5+ days) and then carb load your body for a day raising the leptin hormone which is crucial for fat loss. But unless you are eating low carb (75g or less) the other days I wouldn't suggest a full blown cheat day.
