Weight loss: Obesity takes many forms and fat in the belly, apple shape, is considered worse. You need to curtail your intake of food and increase the exercise. There may be associated issues and you may wish to consult this site and your doctor. http://www.mayoclinic.com/health/metabolic%20syndrome/ds00522.
