eli5: What is actually causing the “beer belly” appearance?

901 viewsBiologyOther

I was wondering how people get beer belly just by frequent drinking. Is it just body fat? Are your organs getting larger or something? Is beer actually making your stomach large and round or are you just gaining weight?

I’m struggling with this right now. I have skinny legs but a beer belly. I stopped drinking beer in January and started working out. I’ve lost 10 pounds and feel more energized, but my gut has only decreased slightly. Not sure what I’m doing wrong
