[quote=Anonymous]Hi OP -- I have very similar stats -- I'm 5'3". In June 2021 (age 39) I weighed 175. This was not my normal weight at all (which in my early 30's was more between 130-140)...combo of two pregnancies, the pandemic, etc. I decided to lose the weight. By October 2021, I had lost 40 lbs , down to 135 (so ten pounds a month for four months). And I did very little exercise (not bragging about that, I was just really too busy to find the time). I counted calories, did IF (only ate between 12-7), cut out alcohol and almost all sugar, cut out processed foods. I focused on lean protein, veggies, and good fats, but ate some carbs too. It wasn't fun, but not soooo terrible either. Over the next 8 months, I lost another 15 pounds. So I was 120 in a year later. I've kept it off so far and I'm not nearly as restrictive. Since that weight was so unnaturally high for me, the first 40 melted off when I lowered my caloric intake, even without exercise. [/quote]
