If weight loss is simply cals in / cals out, why do post menopausal women have a harder time losing weight?

Same goes for older people in general. Is it harder to lose weight because they simply move less? What’s happening that makes weight loss so much harder in 30s and above?

Metabolism slows down as we age, making it more difficult to burn calories. This is compounded by a decrease in physical activity and muscle mass. Post-menopausal women also experience hormonal changes that can contribute to weight gain. It’s not just about calories in/calories out anymore.
