First you have to understand that we are mammals. When we reach a certain age, our metabolism slows down, and our bodies start saving energy for when we can no longer "hunt". I'm not sure this is 100% accurate, but it's what my Chief told me when we talked about how hard it was getting to lose weight. It sounded pretty logical to me...

its only ever hard if you let it be. eat less to shrink your tummy (but not too less) exercise more (but not too unhealthily) see a nutritionist to find what foods are more likely to fasten your metabolism

The metabolism starts crawling.. you are less active.. not less active as in the busy, every day motions of life.. I am sure that can be just as hectic, if not moreso but there is less room for repetitive exercising. A lot of women are raising families with the stressful job of keeping the household going, some while working and there is just little time left for themselves. Genetics and health issues cause the majority of weight issues in women 40+
