What I would like to understand is why it is "so easy" for men to lose weight while women struggle? A few years ago I went from 240 to 205 in about 2 months doing the Atkins diet. My, wife who was just as steadfast on the diet, if not more so lost only a few pounds.

To answer the OP, since my loss from above, I have stayed in the 200-210 neighborhood, but I lost a full size in the waste since I started golfing all the time. I'm not sure if it has helped, or is because of golf. I do know for sure, when I was experimenting with yoga for a short period of time, it greatly helped my game. I don't know if yoga is something you can do with rheumatoid arthritis or not, but if you can... I'd say try it out.
