[quote=Anonymous][code]Just wanted to add I am incredibly jealous of all of you! 48 y.o., weigh and track all my food, very minimal carbs, no alcohol, mainly lean proteins, fruits and meat (i.e., "clean eating"), around 1400 calories a day, work out 7 days a week, and still overweight (25 bmi). Easy to gain, so hard to lose.

Those of you are in late 40's/early 50's, etc., who claim it's not genetics, it's just "moderate eating," must eat tiny, tiny portions.[/code]

I'm 48 and just dropped my BMI from 27 to 20 without weighing, tracking or calorie counting.  I literally just cut out sugar and processed snacks.  (I guess it helps that my diet was mostly sugar and processed snacks - the fact that I wasn't obese probably suggests that I have genetically good metabolism).  I definitely eat more than 1400 calories. I try not to go crazy with carbs, but I have oatmeal everyday.  If I'm having something that usually is served with rice, I eat rice.  I don't for example, order Pho from a restaurant and throw away the noodles (I still think about the poster who said she did that lol).  
 
If I ate like some of the people on this thread, I would definitely have an underweight BMI.  I have never "forgotten to eat" or skipped a meal because I wasn't hungry. [/quote]
