[quote=Anonymous]I'm 53 and have lost 20 lbs over the last year. I'm still trying to lose 5 more and it's the hardest 5. Here's what I did: track all my calories and aim for 1700/day. Reduce the amount of meat, sugar, carbs, processed food and increase the amount of protein and whole foods. I'm not cutting out any single category of food because I want to be able to maintain this long term and I know I won't be able to go without sugar or carbs forever. I upped my exercise to 5 days of cardio and 3 days of weighlifting. I'm wasn't a big drinker to begin with, but I probably have only 1-2 drinks a month now. I added intermittent fasting when I hit a previous plateau and it helped me lose another 5 pounds. As I said, I'm still struggling with the last 5, but I'm just going to keep at it and hopefully I will slowly lose it.[/quote]
