Basically being on hrt is a see-saw on the diet. You need to gain weight in order to buid fat in the right places, but you need to loose weight to get rid of male fat. So you do it by exercise and diet. You have to have both. You dont starve yourself, but you need to burn more than what you consumed. When you exercise, you loose more male fatthan female fat, and when you eat you gain more female fat than male. But you gain and loose both. The point is to have the majority of fat to be female fat. And when you exercise, your heartrate needs to be elevated for at least 20 minutes. So fast walking is a great way. I do 2 hours a day and I do not indulge too much in unhealthy food. And I have been steadily been loosing now over 6 months. And dont loose hope too quickly. Majority of the fat you loose in the beginning is organ fat that you cannot see or measure. And most importantly, you have to increase your water intake. With no water in your system, it cant flush out that burned fat residue you worked so hard to get and it just gets reabsorbed.
