Here is my plan (plans of mice and men...)
I've been doing T25 for the past 5 weeks and lost 10 inches and 4 lbs. I haven't started HRT yet so I'm hoping I can continue losing weight and inches even after I start hormones. With the program there is no weights just hard cardio and movements. Im 6 ft so im not sure what a safe weight or size would be to aim for. Any ideas? Thank you ladies!

What I heard recently is yoga and pilates. Supposedly these exercises are supposed to help. I have no idea of the validity but maybe something to look into.

I am using an Elliptical trainer, good for my cardiovascular workout. It can fluctuate from light to high force focused around the speed of the exercise and the resistance preference set by the user. That is why I love using this stuff.

I like using a "pec" machine.  Like the Cybex pin-select "Fly  / Rear Delt" machine.

I set it on the lowest weight and do many, many reps.   Over time this will result in well developed pectorals, which provide an excellent platform for your boobs.   If anyone questions your boobs you can tell them you got carried away with pectoral exercise.

An Elliptical exercise machine, walking and water aerobics round out my exercise regimen.

+1 for the video Ganjina posted.

And +1 for pilates. 

Long, toned muscle is the goal.  And as others have said, to avoid bulking up, don't do weights.
