Does anyone here know how to put on weight healthily lol.  I'm 5'11 and I only weigh 115 lbs :/ it's annoying cuz I really want to be about 130 ish. Anyone with an extremely high metabolism put on weight on hrt/ gone on a diet to put on weight?

And how do people get shorter/ smaller feet on hrt? Biologically it doesn't make sense lol

omg im about your hight too and i cant wait to be 110-115 again. but if you really want to eat lots of simple sugars and high carb foods. also make sure you eat before bed. oh and whatever you eat on binge days like if you sometimes max out at 2900 calories a day double that by eating like ice cream and stuff. of and if your working out alot cut it out  ;)

When I started, I was at 175 (height = 5'11"). Right now I'm sitting around 177-180. Probably lost some muscle since I have visually noticeable weight-gain despite only gaining a couple pounds. Hopefully gonna be a little thinner by summer. But I like food too much.

That's the thing.... I don't touch a gym and never have!! I feel like I'm too skinny :/ how much do you weigh, if you don't mind me asking? From your profile pic, your the kind of weight I'd like to be :-) your slim but you look healthy :-) I just look sickly :-(

For either gender, I think you are sliiiightly overweight; probably still in the healthy range. I don't think you need to lose weight, but of course, I don't think it'd be bad to lose a little either.

As for me... When I started HRT, I think I weighed maybe 140 lbs, which is roughly 63 Kg, (or was it 145 lbs ~= 65 Kg?) and I'm 165 cm (~5'5") tall. Now I weigh about 135 lbs (~61 Kg), fluctuating between periods of overeating and periods of undereating, from 130 lbs (~58.5 Kg) to almost 140 lbs (~63 Kg). I'm still a little overweight - my belly and body in general tells it all - but in the healthy range.

Also, use BMI (body mass index) with caution. It's a general - very general - measurement. It's not really accurate. Me, for example, I'm around the middle of the "healthy weight" range. But if you look at my body, you can clearly see I'm not that well. I basically have no waist, my thighs jiggle around a lot and my belly is still sizeable. Waist measurement is a much more reliable indicator of how healthy you are than weight. Because there's quite a lot of variation in what's a healthy weight for who, but not so much with waist circumference. Also, as you all know, the location of fat is important. Fat on the waist and belly is heaps worse than fat elsewhere.

I'm 5'6 and 135 lbs. When I started I was 140. I've been starving myself though to reduce some muscle from my arms and shoulders.

Lydia I go through periods when I like food too and it can be challenging
In the pick I was 159 but due to fasting and restricting I have dropped since this pic in November . I'm around 130 now

6' and 290 lbs when I started transition, then 6 months later, 6' and 250 lbs when I started HRT. At same height and weight now after 13 months on HRT. Doctors say I'm healthy, and all my numbers agree. But my family tends towards Sumo/King Kamayamaya size beauties and someone from a thin family would probably be suffering metabolic syndrome at my weight.
Eventually I will like to get out of plus sizes, but I have more important things on my plate right now. If I were to drop below 170 I would be very unhealthy; aiming for 185-190. My brother who is an inch shorter is about 220, and he runs/swims/bikes competitive times in triathlons regularly.

I started off at 295 @ 5'9 the lowest point in my life :( SO I changed changed my eatings habits and started to excercise during the 3 month wait before approval to start HRT. I got to 265. I honestly thought I was going to be told no on the HRT but my blood pressure, sugar level, Cholesterol was fine. AFter starting HRT I got down to 194 this month. My Goal is one 160 by the end of this year. I have not done any binge dieting. No fads. No pills. Just ate healthier.  I count calories when I feel I am putting on weight. But I still have a mocha ,I gave up soda and smoking and I will keep my one vice :)

I also walk everywhere now a days. Especially from Spring till the end of the year when I pick up meds. Now I want to start running soon in the evenings because I would liek to run a half marathon next year. 

Honestly I was afraid of loosing weight I didn't wan't to loose meh bewbs. I can fill a B cup before starting. I lucked out according to my therapist and doctor still got a full B cup.
