[quote=Anonymous]It’s not more exercise; it’s diet. Exercise is for building muscle, toning and body composition. Only caveat is type of exercise. We lose muscle mass as we age. This means adjusting the type of exercise to maintain muscle mass. Diet is for weight. Look at the macronutrients of your diet. % of fat, protein, carbs plays a big role in satiety. It’s not no simple as calories in, calories out. Calories are a good place to start, because it is easy to underestimate caloric consumption. Also look at overall blood work. I had been tired and gaining weight. Everyone kept telling me thyroid! Thyroid was fine, but I had horrible anemia with really low ferritin. For me, severe anemia led to puffiness, weight gain and insane food cravings. Prescription drugs and supplements are another thing to consider. These can have a significant impact on weight. Sleep! This also makes a huge difference. Look at your sleep quality. [/quote]
