That's how it used to be for me. Not sure what's going on. Lost without trying. Now I have to..eat a lot to keep me where I'm at. Noticed though the other day, I'm down 2 lbs again. I have to remember to keep weighing myself to watch it.

I'm in the same boat, Cynthia. I got an ultimatum from my doc. Lose weight, eat healthier or go on medication for my cholesterol. I'd tried the meds. They all gave me side effects that had me flat out on the sofa most of the day so that was my motivation. Started at around 145 pounds I'm at 118 now. My food needs have completely changed. Small amounts of food satisfy me. Dinner is usually meat, fish and a veggie side and I'm full. If I'm not careful my weight will slip lower. Right now I shoot to stay between 115 and 120 but by some scales I'm underweight by others, just fine. My cholesterol numbers are greatly improved but this past year with the stress of my and my husband's surgeries I really struggled to keep my weight up now. Sometimes if I need a boost I'll bake cookies like I did over the weekend and enjoy them without guilt. I can always add a pound or two that way.

I blame my age on it.
