[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I never doubted the experience of others but thought it might be easier for me since I’m naturally thin, have been a distance runner all my life, and have always eaten healthy foods. Nope. I gained 10 lbs in 6 mos recently at age 44. I used to puff up a bit over the holidays but now it’s piling on and not moving like it used to. I haven’t started dieting yet, but something has clearly shifted in my metabolism. [/quote] To quote the PP above, it may be insulin resistance. Your body may have moved into fat storage mode from insulin being spiked all the time. Every time you snack between meals, insulin spikes again. When it stays raised, you never get a chance to burn fat because your body too busy storing it. You end up exhausted and storing fat in the middle. Try no snacking for a week and see if you feel a difference after 3-4 days of it. [/quote]
