effectiveness of sweating for weight loss?

I’ve been jogging a long time bt eventually got bored which led to laziness and weight gain. Then I decided to take up swimming and I don’t seem to be getting the same results as oppose to th popular belief that it is great for weight loss. My stamina has improved bt thats it. I wantd to ask if ‘sweating’ affects the results, especially since swimming gets you out of breath but it’s not really a sweaty exercise.

I'm not fat, but my stomach sticks outs like I'm pregnant but I'm not.?

I’m (almost) a 14 year old girl, and I’m wondering if this is normal or not.

I’m actually very muscular, like when I wake up and there’s no food in me, or when I tighten my stomach I have muscles there. I only weight about 100 pounds and I’m muscular and actually skinny all over except my stomach, most of the time, bulges out and it really looks like I’m pregnant. I do get my period regularly, and it’s all the time, not just when I’m on/near my period. I’m not sexually active, so there’s no way that I could be actually pregnant. I’m wondering if this is normal.. because my friends tease me about it, but I take it lightly, I don’t obsess over being skinny and being perfect like most girls. For the most part I like my body, so I don’t let it get to me. I’m not sure if it’s a gut.. because I do kind of eat a LOT. :P Or what..? If you need pictures I can provide them, but hopefully you get what I’m trying to say? Basically I look like I’m in the very early stages of pregnancy. So whats causing this and is it normal?
Hey, I said it before, I’m not fat, the the first person who answered. When I said I eat a lot, I meant I snack a lot. I eat small meals throughout the day. I’m trying to go vegetarian, so meat isn’t really isn’t an option. I’m also severely anemic, if that helps…?
I’m going to spare being modest because I just need to get my point across but,

I’m extremely active and muscular, so it’s not that I’m a fat lazy couch potato, I ride horses competitively, and the equestrian sports keeps me plenty fit, and on top of that I play hockey, so I don’t think it’s laziness.
