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?

As a woman who also happens to be in perimenopause, nothing makes me angrier than the calories in/calories out gaslighting everyone (especially men on reddit) pushes on us. I’ve struggled with my weight all my life, gone up and down, and I can tell you for certain there is some sort of hormonal chemistry behind it all. I can load up on avocados and even chicken fingers and lose weight but one piece of bread and the scale jumps up. Wine? Ok. Beer? Nope.
