[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I can't find the willpower to eat small portions of sweets, so I eat none except on special occasions. Then it's ugly for a day, then I'm back to abstaining. I am 53 and have come to accept this is how I am. [/quote]

I am more or less the same. I'm 46. I've never been able to eat a lot of sweets without consequence, unless I'm on vacation and walking an extra 5000-10000 steps/day. (I already walk 10,000-15,000 steps per day - if I walk a lot more than that, I can eat sweets.) Now I will occasionally have something sweet - but to me, I either want a LOT of sweets or none. I'm not one of these "one square of good chocolate every night after dinner" people - I want 20 large squares of whatever chocolate you have around the house, or nothing.

When I was younger, I could more or less eat whatever I wanted - as long as I didn't have sweets or alcohol - and stay at 115. Now I can eat more or less whatever I want, so long as I skip sweets and alcohol, and stay at 125. I'd love to be thinner again but prbly not at the cost of being able to eat what I like, outside of booze and sweets.[/quote]
