hrt and weight loss

[almam 61]

I've been losing weight but slowly. I'm averaging 500-600 cal a day, 70-80 grams Protein, <55grams carbs. Im wondering if it's not my hrt slowing my loss because hrt tends to make ppl gain weight. Anyone on hrt?

What is hrt?

Hormone replacement therapy. I really dont think it would slow your weightloss down. You might be a slow loser like a lot of us. I stoped taking my hrt before my surgery so that I could deal with the hormones that were and are in my belly fat. So far not as many hot flashes and the weight is coming off slowly but it is steady.

Dr wanted to take me off mine but my symptoms wont let me function. Nausea, vomiting, anxiety, hot flashes, night sweats, formication (arms, legs)...ugh. so I refused to take my patch off during sx and after. Im just a slow loser i guess but a loser nonetheless:-)
