After years of struggling with Middle Aged Weight gain, I have found a program that works for me. See Gary Taubes' new books on diet. I've tried this approach and it is incredible - so much so that I've started a website to spread the word. Investigate SLOW CARB eating for weight loss. Atkins was very close to the truth! This really works for me and keeps me FULL -- and I lose pounds. Amazing.

According to the nutritionists at SparkPeople, your body goes into startvation mode if you aren't eating enough. Who knew?! lol

I'm not an expert, but can tell you my personal experience. I was stuck at my weight and actually went up a little for some time despite putting on a lot of miles and cardio. I didn't understand! I was eating healthy and moving. After tracking everything that went in my mouth, I discovered I was not eating nearly enough for my activity level. I have nearly doubled my calories and kind of graze all day and have lost weight and dropped my body fat %. I'v also gained a ton of energy, need less sleep and am able to go faster and longer than before.

Everyone is different. Experiment a little and see what works best for you. Best wishes!

weight gain from not eating enough?

I've gained about 5 pounds over the past couple of months despite training harder than ever. Some folks have told me the weight gain could b/c I 'm not eating enough and my body is holding onto anything I put into it. I run about 70 miles/week and eat about 1500 calories a day. Any experts out there on this subject?
