I did tweak by eliminating my inflammatory foods (dairy protein, grains, soy) and got below 150 lbs, where I always got stuck when younger than 50. Rate was 0.5 to 1 lb/week, slowing down for the last 15, but it kept moving. Now I maintain with intermittent fasting (a 4-10 hr eating window).

You give me hope Deidra. You're basically following a paleo diet then? I still have dairy and soy. I may have to stop them. I seem to be sensitive to hormones so I have to eat the foods with the least 'hormones' in them. Fish, plants, and I wasn't having too much trouble with soy.. it could be becoming problematic now at my age though.
