You don't know what you're talking about. I'm 44. To lose weight, I have to consume less than 1,200 calories. A little more, I maintain and around 1,500, I start gaining. [/quote]

How long have you been restricting calories? I'm 40 and won't gain until I'm eating 2200 or more per day. Easily lose at 1500-1800. I wonder if some of the "can't eat many calories" people have been restricting for so long that their bodies freak out when calories return to a normal level. Not saying that's the case for you. Just wondering how often something like that happens. [/quote]

Not PP, but I'm the same as her.  You're probably just taller or have significantly more muscle mass.  I haven't been restricting calories that long.  [/quote]

Ditto.  I don't lose until I dip under 1200.  I'm 5'7.  I don't think it has anything to do with height.[/quote]

Well, objectively, it does have something to do with height.  But that doesn't mean you at 5'7" don't have the same caloric needs as me at 5'4".   It just means that if you were 5'4" you, with your metabolism, would have to restrict even more.  Be glad you're tall-ish![/quote]
