True its not a lot extra but I'd rather be a muscular 168lbs vs fat 168lbs. I'm a firm believer in calories in vs calories out. Its worked great for me. I went from 230lbs and very little muscle mass to a lean and muscular 168lbs just by cleaning up my diet of sugar and junk food and adding in 30-60 minutes of moderate weight lifting 2 or 3 times a week and an hour 2x a week running or hitting a heavy bag.

 

Older folks frequently need less calories because we carry less muscle mass, and are normally at least a little less active. Baseline metabolism can also slow down as the thyroid ages.

Add those three things together, and it can make a fair difference in calorie needs.
