[quote=Anonymous]I'm post-menopause and 10 lbs snuck up on me over the past 6 years or so. I am not into the overweight category but very unhappy about the flab around my middle and widening thighs. And I know if I don't nip it in the bud now, it will just keep creeping. I am healthy otherwise. I run every day and do lifting--though not very heavy--2-3 times a week. For the last 7 days I worked very hard to have a calorie deficit of close to 500 per day. Admittedly, I only achieved that 2 days, but over the course of the week, I was in a 2800 deficit. Just got on the scale and I gained a pound. I realize it's too soon to know if this is going to work, but I have cut out over 25% of the overall calories I eat — that should cause the scale to move down, not up. I am so disappointed. How do I keep this up? I truly believed the old calories out over calories in would work, but maybe it's true that old wisdom just isn't correct anymore. [/quote]
