Coming to terms with the idea of maintenance. I still want to cut a few pounds, but once they're off, then I want to stay reasonably level in weight. I'm not sure at my age that 'bulk and cut' for weight lifting is a really good idea. Stability. That's what I'll be looking for. In the mean time, I'll be doing 2800 calorie day (300 cal excess) followed by an 1800 calorie day (700 cal cut) to see how that feels. If I can get through the holidays and just maintain my weight, I'll be ecstatic. I'll likely cut harder come about Jan 15. Have a great day kids.

I will say that it does get harder as you get older. For both sexes, you naturally store more body fat as you age. For Men, Testosterone levels drop 1% per year after Age 30, so by 50, you're 20% short. With lower Testosterone, you have higher Estrogen, and greater fat storage, less potential muscle growth, and weaker bones, not to mention reduced libido. How to counter this?...lift weights, heavy weights. Engaging the big muscles (legs and back), will raise T levels and strengthen bones. It just takes the will and desire to make it happen. As for Women, in Europe, Menopause is often treated with Testosterone and not Estrogen, and after Breast Cancer, an AI is prescribed to lower Estrogen levels in favor of Testosterone....why? Cancer loves fat cells, and Estrogen levels are very high in Triglycerides.

Bang on Mahjohn. Lean out and lift. Cancer rates are higher in women prior to menopause due to estrogen.

What really irks me.....Menopause vs. Andropause. Treatment of Women with Menopause is well established and covered by insurance plans. For Men the treatment is Testosterone, which everyone automatically assumes you're looking to take some magic Superman drug, and the cost even with Insurance is several thousand dollars per year.

It's rather astonishing. Even laws lean toward groups and genders. Not exactly how that equal 'equality'.
