Reducing stomach fat when on AF medication.

I have had AF for a number of years. I have had a number of Cardioversion and 2 Catheter ablations. I am awaiting a Maze Ablation. I am on bisoloprol and Riveroxaban to manage my AF. I do tend to get breathless when going uphill or standing up suddenly. Over the last 8 month I have managed to reduce my weight to a BMI of under 25 and done regular exercise. What I am left with however is fat around stomach area. The fat in other parts of my body has gone but is persisting around my stomach. Has anyone had this problem and found a solution?
