Hormone belly!

I recently came off my birth control and am really struggling with my belly fat! I have been exercising pretty regularly and have seen results elsewhere but the pooch will not budge. I know my hormones are still adjusting but it is really frustrating! My diet is getting better but am still working on ways to curb the sweet tooth. Any advice is welcome but please be kind 🙈 I'm still really self- conscious! Posting a before picture as well! Thanks 🤗💕
