[quote=Anonymous]I'm 42 yo, 5'3", and working on losing weight without drugs. I have been skinny most of my life and have a small frame. Never really did consistent strength training so have historically had quite low muscle mass. Weight as an adult before baby was between 115 and 125. Had my baby 7 years ago and didn't gain too much weight until I weaned her at around 14 months. Weight creeped up over a couple of years. Starting an SSRI might have contributed. This time last year I was at 140. I'm down to 131 now. Started losing weight after I built up a weekly consistent exercise routine that now includes:
- about 3 hours of Peloton Power Zone rides split between 4 sessions
- 3 40 minute sessions of Peloton strength classss per week (I follow the HardCoreOnTheFloor calendar but not all the days of it).

Diet wise I have not been very intentional about reducing calories. With the exercise I have fewer cravings for junk food. I do go through phases where I don't lose much weight at all because I am indulging more, eating worse. When I do lose weight I am not tracking calories but just generally trying to eat less and skip that can of coke or extra piece of candy.

It's going slowly but feels very sustainable. And the strength training has helped a lot with improving my posture and feeling more stable.[/quote]
