Birthday around the corner

Hi all, this is my first attempt communicating on the community board and I love that there is a 50+ group. I am turning 57 next month and am a relatively healthy person. I am finding that my typical routine is not working anymore and my clothes are not fitting the way they used to. I am so frustrated!!! Has anyone felt this way and if so, what have you done about it? Looking forward to meeting everyone.

I’m not sure I understand. Which routine are you talking about and what do you think is prompting your increased size?

As in...

1. I’ve not changed my eating routines but I’m gaining weight
OR
2. I’ve not changed my physical activity but my body fat content has gone up
OR
3. Both.

I’ve not changed my physical activity. I am wondering if the focus shifts in workouts as I age. I work out 4-5 times per week but do the same exercises and classes each week.
