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

Question

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?

Answer 1

Because your body changes. Hormones change. I used to be able to drop weight easily but now I am struggling with every kg. One big issue with CI/CO is also that it’s hard to measure accurately at home.
