Hi Bulletz,
Targeting just your belly fat is difficult. The best way to shed the belly fat is through aerobic activities that burn calories and fat, such as brisk walking, jogging, swimming, and biking. Include activities that trim the waistline, such as crunches. For results, it's necessary to follow a well balanced diet that promotes a calorie deficit (burn more calories than you eat in a typical day).
It sounds like you are doing all of the above - stick with it.
It is possible for stress to affect belly fat. To learn more about this relationship, check out this article:

All the best,
