A friend just sent me this. I think it is helpful tip for people like me who strongly tend toward visceral fat deposition as opposed to subcutaneous. We can easily become "skinny" diabetics.

How to Lose Belly Fat: Deep Belly (Visceral), Subcutaneous, and Fat Around The Liver
After eight months, those who did just strength training lost only subcutaneous (below-the-skin) abdominal fat (See Fig 1 below).
In contrast, those who did aerobic training --12 miles/week at 75% max V02, e.g. brisk walk, with or without strength training— lost deep belly fat, subcutaneous belly fat, and fat from around the liver (See Fig 1 below).
