[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. [/quote]
