Weight can be part of the challenge but it can also be due to how a person carries themselves too. Often a person shifts a lot of their weight into one side of their body unknowingly. I have a tendency to lean on my left side and it caused me to stress my left side more and have more issues with my left foot and knee and probably hip too. That can be helped with better shoes that have better support in them via soft orthopedics. It’s not always just weight but distribution of in how we carry it as we navigate.

That being said it can get harder to lose weight as we get older because our metabolism slows and we lose muscle mass and we don’t handle stress as well and we change hormonally.

You are not alone with this challenge (((hugs))).
