Well, 6 years ago the scale began to irremediably go up, first reached 56 and however I tried to lose weight I did not succeed, reaching the 63 kilos now.

The fact is that as always since I debuted, and I do 1.30 hours of exercise at least 4 days a week.

What can I be doing wrong?

Goodssss ... @monykina The issue of losing weight is more matter of mathematics than anything else ... you need to use or burn more calories than you consume ... A healthy diet and sport is a good combination.I would recommend that you were a dietitian, since they will make you a diet to cover your needs, so you can do it little by little and letting your body adapt to the changes.Many times simply changing small habits achieve great results.All the best.
