I'm not fat in most (if not all) measurements, but I can see my belly fat when I sit down. I've read quite a few articles/papers discussing weight loss, but it ended up helped me very little. The number provided in the articles (including this one) while important, is still too abstract to directly act upon. Guess what I wanted is a list of specific food/stuffs that I need to consume everyday in order to stay healthy and strong. Maybe some experts in the field can create an app/webpage which allow you "shop" consumables with your daily calories as budget. Also, as far as I understand it, calories is just one part of the game, the end goal is being healthy, not just weight loss.

Maybe the issue is not "being fat" then, one of the things I noticed in my journey to understanding my body is that since I sit a lot (I can't seem to be able to code while standing) my core would atrophy and lose natural tension. Without that wall viscera fall down because gravity, pushing outwards like jello resting on a flat surface, and making normal fat feel uncomfortably present. Doing planks and working on fixing posture usually solves that for me. YMMV though.
