[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Wait till you 50-52.
I was still considered “prime” at 45[/quote]

This! I'm 49 and it starts really hitting me- the weight gain. Only a year ago, I was 115 lbs and could easily go to 110 lbs with some calorie restriction. Now, I'm 120 lbs at 5'4" and literally cannot lose weight. At 45, I was still skinny, like 108 lbs. The struggle is real ladies.[/quote]

120 is still slim and v healthy for your height. 108 was likely underweight. I don’t know who these people are who think they’re going to stay their high school weight their whole lives.[/quote]

108 / 5’4” is an 18.5 BMI and is not underweight. And regarding who are the people who think they’re going to stay at the same weight all their life : count me in. And my mom. And my grandma. And yes for them it was on purpose in addition to good genes.

They did (are still for my mom) aim to control their weight gain all their lives and had a very balanced and happy relationship to food. My grandma died at 96 and it was only in the last 15 years that she gained 10 pounds, as a bit of cushion is better when you get to that point.
