• Right, I'm all over this - I have invested too much in a specific size of trousers to get any larger.

    Was about 64KG when I left London 6 years ago. 6 years of exploring the sheffield ale scene, having a child, and the pandemic saw me reach an unpleasant 73KG about 6 weeks back.

    Through calorie counting and upping the exercise a bit (slow 5ks, slightly longer dog walks, inefficient swimming) I got down to 69.5 in about a month. And there I have resolutely stayed for the last 2 weeks, no matter how few calories I consume.

    I feel like I can tell my metabolism has slowed down, so need to kick it back up, seemingly through strength training. Not a clue what I'm doing with that, will see what youtube has to offer - can't really be bothered with weights in the house, so bodyweight stuff will have to do.

  • Read back on the couple of pages back..

    It happens, it just kinda stalls and then kicks back in again.

    Exercise is never a bad idea, but the calories is the most important.

    In the end I just did it by eating less.

  • I would just say keep being consistent - stalls happen. Resistance training is just good for you all around and getting steps in or zone 2 can also be really helpful.
