I may have to adjust my goal weight to 125 or 130. Due to the body's age etc. I had researched optimal weight based on frame, age, gender etc.

What is your age, gender? I'm 60 and gained 25 lbs in about 6 mos! That's fast I think. I have not been able to lose a single pound or inch either, in about 6 mos. do you think age has something to do with it?

NO Sondra52 - I am age 60 and I am building muscle and losing fat! It depends upon your nutrition plan and how much you exercise to create a caloric deficit! Anyone can lose...just be sure you do not have a thyroid issue.

I have diabetes, hypothyroidism and fibromyalgia - so fatigue and pain levels are high. I don't know how to change the goals. I need also to look at lowering my cholesterol.
One goal I have is to eat my way to no meds for diabetes and high cholesterol.

Sorry, I'm female, 69, and short. Weight and excess fat can be reduced, but there is a change in metabolism as we get older.

I agree about metabolism changing as we age - and I have hypothyroid, too. I am age 60 and short, too. LOL - but it can happen. I am keeping a higher goal weight because I want something I can easily maintain over the long term.

The best way to increase HDL is with exercise. To lower LDL you want soluble fiber and an increase in poly/mono-unsaturated fats (nuts, avocados, olive oil, etc) and avoid anything contains partially-hydrogenated oils (trains fat).

I'm 61, and do gain weight easily. I can put on 2 or 3 pounds per week on holiday. I think longer term this would slow, but long-term I could probably put on a pound a week with no trouble. I don't know whether metabolism really slows as we age, or whether we just tend to be less active? It is a vicious circle anyway - we put on a bit of weight, so we become a bit less active, which makes us put on a bit more weight, etc. In the end the extra weight affects the joints making activity difficult, and leads to diseases like high cholesterol, high blood pressure and diabetes.
We do seem to need less food as we get older, and I'm sure that even before starting to try and lose weight I was eating a lot less than when I was in my twenties. Still putting on weight however, so have reduced intake to lose, and will be very cautious about increasing again when I reach goal.
I also strongly believe that exercise is important, to maintain cardio fitness, bone density, blood pressure etc., and I also think that it raises metabolic rate at least for a time, improves mood, and adds variety to life.
Sondra, if you want some pointers on this, please let us see your details!
