Anyone got really useful knowledge of how to maintain muscle mass? - Not just advice to get more calories - I have plenty, but just seem to burn what I eat.

Exercise is the only activity that will help maintain muscle mass.

Eat protein with every meal and do weight bearing exercise.

Have you had your thyroid checked?

I'll get a thyroid check and meanwhile add some weight bearing to the exercise - and protein! Thank you everyone.
