You can correct deep belly fat faster than most doctors believe. Without extreme dieting, without medications, visceral fat builds up around your liver and all your organs. It responds not to calorie cutting, but to insulin relief. Spacing your meals allows your body to switch out of sugar burning mode and back into fat mobilizing mode. That's what you want. You want to mobilize your fat so you can burn it for fuel. Getting insulin to reduce so that the body can have time to burn this fat consistency always wins.
