I'm a medium-sized girl but have a lot of stubborn fat around my stomach that makes me really uncomfortable. Is there any way to reduce this without surgery? I'd love to know what options might work for me.

Get active. Strength training exercises are recommended at least twice a week. If you want to lose weight or meet specific fitness goals, you might need to exercise more. There is some evidence that high-intensity interval training (HIIT) can help reduce belly fat, as can strength training

Question

I'm curious about the effects of water fastingI recently did it for 5 days without eating, just drinking water, and lost about 2 kg. I'm worried about whether I'll gain the weight back after I stop fasting.
