[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am 45 and put on 25 lbs over the last 4-5 years and really want to lose that weight. I am currently 5’6” and weigh 152, was 162 at my highest but lost 10 lbs thanks to seeing a nutritionist and overhauling my diet. But I can’t seem to get below 150 and my PCP would like me to lose another 5-10 lbs as I have borderline high blood pressure and she thinks if I can lose more weight I won’t need to go on meds. [b]I didn’t use to work out at all, but have added strength training 4 days a week[/b] for the past month and am still not seeing any weight loss. I do count calories and stick to [b]1,650[/b] per day which did work at one time but maybe I need to cut down even more. I am maintaining my current weight but haven’t lost anything in a month.

What can I do to drop the last 5-10 lbs? Or am I resigned to not being able to lose more weight and will just have to go on BP meds? I weighed 135 until I had kids and this extra weight is all meno belly in my stomach. No joke, I have had a few people ask me if I am pregnant over the past few years as I have always been thin/lean everywhere else.[/quote]

eat 700 calories for a month and you will lose it, and quickly. drop the strength training unless you enjoy it. if you are doing it to lose weight it's not going to help.[/quote]

Dont listen to this, whatever you do OP. Terrible advice.

Yeah it’s the same lady who made a whole post about how much weight she lost eating 700 calories and walking a totally unsustainable (for normal people) amount every day. She claims her “doctor” thought it was fine and supported it. Fiction. She has an eating disorder and seems to want everyone else to have one too. Surprise, you lose a bunch of weight when you only eat 700 calories because you are starving yourself.[/quote]
