phix95 is on a distinguished road
And I know I cannot spot reduce, so I'd lose fat all over. And I do exercise. Cardio 2-3 times/week, then abs/arms or abs/legs twice/week. That's why I'm confused. Since I've generally been eating better (about 4 years) I've gained weight. Like I'm being punished for being good. Ohhhkaaay. That's fair....
So it boils down to:
I eat 1400 cal/day
My basal metabolic rate is about 1346.2.
Leaves a surplus of around 54 calories.
I walk about 35 min/day. (85 cal burned)
I either exercise or do weights almost every day (65 cal)
= Deficit of 96 calories!!
Still gain fat on my middle.
