[quote=Anonymous]Five feet, stayed comfortably at 115 in my 20s and 30s, now I'm between 122 and 127 in my late 40s.

I don't really count calories or restrict. But I also have a pretty intuitive sense of what I can and can't eat to maintain my body's preferred weight.

Most days I have oatmeal with tons of fruit and some brown sugar in the morning. A sandwich for lunch (or leftovers). Some fruit in the afternoon. Then usually a big, carb-filled dinner - pasta with veggies or something like that. We usually eat out and/or get takeout 3 or so times a week.

I start putting on weight when I add extra snacks or have a bigger lunch, or eat out more. I usually lose some weight (where I'm more comfortable - I like being at 122-123) when we cook at home and I cut the snacking. But these days it takes a while to get back down to my comfortable weight, after I've gone up.

I usually walk 12,000-15,000 steps per day. I don't walk especially quickly and don't know if that plays much of a role in my weight equilibrium.

Like PP, I am def not trying to starve myself into being as teeny tiny as I could be if I really watched what I eat. I'm just trying to stay comfortable with my body, in my clothes. I'm also very naturally muscular, like PPs.[/quote]
