Problems Losing Weight with HRT

I had a total hysterectomy on Jan 2, 2013 and my doctor put me on the HRT patch two weeks after. Over the last few weeks I have been workout about 1 to 1.5 hours 6 days a week. I have been staying below my daily calorie. When I weigh myself it goes up one or two pounds one day then down the next. It goes back and forth. I notice it inches wise losing but not weight. It is very frustrating :angry: I don't know if my body is still going through a process to adjust or what. I wondered if anyone else was experiencing this also or has before. Hope someone can help me.

    I had a hysterectomy in February 2012 but kept both ovaries. In June of last year and January of this year, I had cysts burst on my right ovary. My current GYN said it was time for the ovaries to come out. I had my ovaries removed on April 15th. I just started the Minivelle patch yesterday. I am hoping it doesn't change much in the way of weight loss & exercising for me. I wish you the best! I guess maybe we'll have to try a little harder until we find that right hormonal balance.
