Ben breaks down the three stages of belly fat and what you can do at each stage to reclaim your metabolic freedom. The 3 Stages of Belly Fat: Stage 1 — The Lower Pooch A soft pocket below the belly button signals rising insulin. Fix: ditch the snacking. Eat 2–3 meals a day, no food in between, and work toward a 16-hour fasting window. Stage 2 — The Stress Belly Fat spreads across the whole midsection as cortisol takes over. Fix: walk 6,000–10,000 steps daily, get to bed by 10 PM, keep your room at 65–68°F, and try banana tea for deeper sleep. Stage 3 — The Hard Belly Firm, dome-shaped fat surrounding your organs — this is visceral fat, and it's serious. Fix: cut all sugar and refined carbs, keep carbs under 100g/day, and stop eating 3–5 hours before bed. Your 3-Step Reset: Reduce insulin spikes — no snacking, no refined carbs, 2–3 meals a day Build a fasting window — aim for 12 to 16+ hours daily Lower stress — fix sleep, walk daily, and don't forget Vitamin G (gratitude) Find All Metabolic Freedom Sponsorship Deals ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Learn more about your ad choices.
