As we lose weight, if we do exactly the same exercise as before, it won't affect our calories as much. So it seems that I should either add weights (to make my body think it's heavier) or exercise longer. Just wondering if anyone else changed their routines because they had lost weight...

I find that as I get more fit I am able to increase the resistance. I do not go by weight loss.
With weights, I do 3 sets of 10. When I able to complete 3 sets of 10 of a weight, then I increase the weight until I can only do a minimum 3 sets of 8. Weight loss occurs as I get stronger.0
