Low carb and intermittent fasting worked for both of us.

Same here. Good to know it's physiology.

Men lose weight more easily than women. They build muscle more easily as well and have more lean muscle mass. It’s not fair, but it’s physiology.

Yup, DH started working out regularly, subbed his bagel with 4slices of cheddar and two eggs for greek yogurt, and cut down to one beer /night and lost 20 lbs. I have always worked out, eat carefully, etc, and struggle to stay a good weight.

Same here. He just stopped eating three meals a day. Like maybe two. I have less and less willpower the older I get. And it's the holidays.

How old are you? Are you exercising or just calorie cutting? Are you doing the low-carb thing?

Same bullshit happened at our house last year. I have PCOS and struggle to lose weight. I was eatin 1200 calories/day for three months and lost five pounds total. He stopped drinking beer for the same time frame, and otherwise ate the same tons of crap, and lost 12 pounds.

It’s so unfair. My dh is constantly trying to eat more so he isn’t so skinny.

Another thought: he could be hyper-thyroid. Makes you lose weight.

Yup, this is my family too. DH just has to stop drinking beer and he drops 20 lbs, looks great.

Are you eating carbs and sugar? Cutting curbs works. Just have cooked veggies and protein only.

I know, OP. I've been on Weight Watchers since August and have managed to eke out a few pound weight loss (which no one has noticed or commented on) by weighing,measuring, carefully point counting.

Meanwhile simply because I haven't bought cookies into the house and have prepared meals WW style, my husband has lost 30 pounds. Everyone comments.

It's not fair, is it?
