Once you lose the weight there is still bits of fat that hang around the stomach and sometimes the chest regardless of how much training you do.
Your problem is in that sentence mate. If there is still fat around your stomach and chest then you need to lose more fat. It's as simple as that.

What excercies or techniques must you do to get rid of that fat that hangs on the stomach area?
Diet. Cardio will help speed up the process, particularly if you do it on an empty stomach first thing in the morning. If you are trying to hang on to lean mass while cutting then I would personally recommend HIIT cardio.

Is there any specific type of thing you should eat?
As long as you are eating less calories than you are burning each day you will continue to lose fat. Consider trying a Keto diet or preferably a carb cycling one like the
CKD diet. If those aren't to your taste then just adhere to some of the basic cutting guidelines in my sticky.
But anyway...
I'll make a wild guess at what has caused your problem. It sounds like you have hit a plateau with your fat loss. This is common when people fail to eat often enough and cut calories a little too much. If this is the case your metabolism will have slowed down to compensate. This leaves you with two options.
A. Cut calories further to lose the fat.
B. Spend a good 3-4 weeks sorting your diet out, eating plenty of food and eating regularly enough to speed up your metabolism. Then begin to gradually lower the calories again.
I wouldn't recommend option A as you will likely find yourself losing a lot of lean mass as well as fat and you will be causing your metabolism to slow even further. Consider trying an "over-feeding" approach. Basically stuff your face (with good clean food) for two weeks in order to give your metabolism a kick start then begin dieting again; but gradually. Throw in some HIIT cardio 3 times a week in the mornings and your abs should be popping out in no time.
