I could do all those things and still never loose any weight but then I get 80% of my cals from booze.
I share your dilemma...years ago, Atkins (Keto) worked great for me...until I started drinking more alcohol.
Alcohol is metabolized just like sugar in the body...your body will go after carbs, sugar, aocohol first for energy...before it starts after the fat.
Therein lies my dilemma.
