[quote=Anonymous]As someone who has counted millions of calories I can tell you that before I did anything, I would go for one month and count, truly count, every calorie. I would also go online and figure out what your BMR is and get a budget for calories, then back out maybe 200 or 300 a day in an effort to lose a half pound a week. My experience with myself and others is that what feels like 1500 is actually 1700 or more and that frankly as you get older your metabolism slows a bit so the 1500 you needed to maintain before is 1300 now. It is extremely unlikely that any of these other issues are to blame - hormones, thyroid, etc - your body has a calorie balance. Staying too far under it for any length of time is difficult so the trick is to stay slightly under it for an extended period of time to gain some weight loss and work out to burn some more calories as a bonus. Track every single calorie in and out and check your BMR. [/quote]
