At 26 I left the Army and like most Jo's I gained weight... My weight had been stable at 74kg (163 pounds).
Before I knew it I was getting FAT. I was working as a nurse at the time so that helped keep the weight off but...
About 7 years later, at 33 I was a real Buddha at 110kg. - (242 pounds)
Divorce at 37. I'm around 100kg (220 pounds) and stable...
At 42 I start walking every evening and stopped eating everything in front of me.
I'm now about 80kg (176 pounds) and getting lighter every week. So I've lost 20kg (44 pounds) in 3 years.
I would like to get down to 74kg (163 pounds) again.
Don't let anybody tell you it's normal to gain weight as you get older.
Just because most people do it doesn't make it "normal" or "correct"...
My biggest motivation >>> There's a history of type 2 Diabetes in my family.
