I'm in kind of the same boat as you. I had a surgical menopause at 45. Since then, I have been able to lose weight. I did not take hormone replacement therapy because I had cancer. In fact, I had to take something that would block even more estrogen in my body. So I was told I would gain weight, but that hasn't happened. I really think the low carb helps. With HRT I think you won't find it too hard to lose weight especially on low carb.

Curious to see other posts... I am 33 and been on an HRT patch for about a month and a half. I have really started putting on weight since HRT. I need to get back to lo-carb, but am reluctant if I wont see results.

I had my surgery 2 years ago. I was 44 then. I have been on HRT (patch) ever since and have been able to lose weight. It is slower but much better since I got back on the LC wagon!
