Multiple reasons: Not everyone is the same in genetics, diet, exercise, stress, sleep patterns, etc. There are infinite varieties of combinations of factors leading to amount of belly fat. Diets high in sweets, processed foods, and other simple carbohydrates (like white rice) can lead to Insulin resistance and more belly fat. High stress and inconsistent sleep can also lead to more belly fat.
