I had a partial hyst in 2005. I still have my ovaries so no hormone replacement therapy. I started back working out 5 months after my surgery and I have steadily gained weight. If I eat really well (low carbs & fats) I slowly lose a few pounds :(.

2003 for me! I have gone up and down by about 10 lbs but since starting this program I have lost 12 to 13 lbs (depending on the day). The best result though is the inches I have lost. I notice it in the fit of my cloths. I am 52 and have found that the older we get, the harder it is to loose the weight. Stick with it you two!! Good luck.
