One thing I've found is that I tend to 'slow down' when dieting, instead of losing weight. I guess my body decides that it should conserve energy.
Obviously, I need to exercise more while I'm reducing calories.
Just back from a five-day vacation. There was no way to avoid eating out and attending potlucks and ice-cream socials, but I managed not to binge and I'm rapidly re-losing the few pounds I gained.
One realization is that I am always going to have to watch what I eat - if I lose weight so very slowly when I'm on 1200-1300 calories a day, then my basal metabolism must be very low.
This started out as "Can an Old Lady Lose Weight on Nutrisystem" but as time went on it became obvious Nutrisystem wasn't goting to work very well. As of 11-28-16 I am going to work on finding an alternative.
