41 here and I'm 5'8" holding around 158-159 lbs. I gained about 6-7 lbs over the last year and cannot drop it. Is it just inevitable? I have a big sweet tooth and actually gave up desserts and cookies/ice cream for Lent - it has done absolutely nothing to change my weight.

Im 45 and im the zone of the last five lbs. I can drop it but keeping it off is another matter totally. It is 60% food and 40% exercise. I have food under control - intermittent fasting basically and have recently started going to the gym. But god its tough.
And i am hungry a lot of the time. |

| I totally agree with the PP. I'm 47, recently lost 15 pounds and to keep it off have had to stay hungry the past few months. So depressing. But I feel like I may as well get used to it. Not going to get any easier from here. Getting old sucks. |
