Hi everyone. I am kinda slim person, last summer my weight was 74 kg (which sounds ok) and I am 175 cm height. I've started running, because I kinda had a belly which I didn't like, I wanted to lose belly fat. So I was running for 2 months, 3-4 times per week. And then... after 2 months... my weight was 68.5 kg.
I don't want to lose so much weight, I only need to rid some belly fat. So I need your advice. How can I do this efficiently? My plan now is to drink protein all the time during the running days. Will that help? Won't I lose too much weight, but get rid of belly fat at the same time, if I will be drinking a nice amount of protein?
Or any other strategies? Please.

If you don't want to lose fat elsewhere, but only want to lose it on the belly, it won't happen.
However, you can work on your core, to change your posture, help muscles in the core, which will help how you hold yourself. You can also lose weight/fat, and the chances are it will come off other places like the belly, if the other places are pretty lacking in fat.
Otherwise, you've got to lose weight all over (or you could lose fat, and put on muscle, overall not losing weight). Tbh at your weight/height, you could probably lose another half a stone and still be ok, and probably not be visibly different in the arms etc.
Sometimes people can always appear fat in the belly when they are more bloated from eating some foods, especially lots of bread. That may or may not be applicable, but you could play with your diet, just to see if it affects you visually.
