[quote=Anonymous]Hello - it is me, the typical DCUM poster. I was a smug pretty thin person through my 20s and 30s. Five feet tall, a healthy and fit 115 pounds - kept myself that weight by not drinking much and not eating a lot of sweets, and otherwise more or less eating what I wanted. I walked then - and now - about two hours a day. Sometimes went for long hikes or bike rides, but walking is and has been my standard exercise. In my late 30s I put on five pounds. I tried to take it off but found it did not want to budge. In my mid-40s it's another five pounds. Used to be I could take off extra weight with a little less food and a little more walking, but these 10 pounds are very stubborn. I'm a lifelong vegetarian. I don't drink alcohol or soda. I don't eat a lot of sweets. I do eat carbs - but not excessively so, I don't think. I still walk about two hours a day. Are my options either radical changes to my diet, or accepting being heavier?[/quote]
