[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Op here.  I am 5’5 and 130 currently.  My usual is 115-120.  I have tiny bones so I’m really noticing the extra weight.  I am at a calorie deficit.  I am also walking 14000 steps a day to see if I can get things moving.   I’ve never had trouble maintaining my weight.  Welcome to my 50s haha.  [/quote]

You are at a healthy weight. I really think some of you have eating disorders that need to be treated by a mental health professional.

Eat healthy, keep exercising and forget about the rest. I have serious doubts that 10-15 extra lbs is making you feel that much worse.[/quote]
It is not an eating disorder to want to be at a weight which is in the "normal" range, which also makes people feel good. The difference between needing to lose 5-15 pounds and needing to lose 30+ is the discomfort many of us feel with those extra 5, 10, 15. I need to reign in my eating at 10 pounds up, you may not feel unconfortable until 20 pounds up. If I get used to being 15 pounds over fighting weight, next thing you know, I'll get comfortable at 30, 50+ pounds over. No thank you, maam.[/quote]

Like I said, eating disorder. [/quote]

The eating disorder here is the refusal to acknowledge being way out of energy balance is unhealthy. Humans never had access to this much energy in conveniently wrapped form in all of human history.
