My wi... I mean, uh, a woman I know exercises 5 days a week over her lunch break. One hour of power yoga, extreme fitness and bootcamp depending on the day. She goes hard, clothes fully drenched in sweat. On top of this she cycles a bit, maybe 20-30 miles a week.

She has a little bit of a belly and larger-than-she'd-like thighs. She weighed 8 pounds less 5 months ago. She eats reasonably healthy foods but has a hard time avoiding dessert maybe 2 times a week.

That is plenty of exercise for any normal person. The diet choices aren't that bad. It is unquestionably a portion problem.

TL;DR
I suspect many BF members have the same issue with portions. This is most profound beyond age 30. At age 18, you can get away with a lot of horrible stuff that just won't fly later on in life.
