Post Active Treatment

Weight Advice?

Hi all! I’m just about 3 years out from my initial diagnosis and 2 years out from finishing all active treatments. Currently on Letrozole and Effexor. After finishing kadcyla, I began walking daily and was able to lose about 30 pounds and maintained it through starting Letrozole and the monthly hormone blocking shots to keep me in medical menopause. In february 2025 I had my ovaries removed because I was tired of the injections. Within a few months I was packing on pounds and am now up about 22 lbs since last year. I feel like no matter what I do nothing works. I lift weights 5 times a week, I walk, I eat a high protein low processed foods diet, I’ve tried tracking calories and staying in a deficit, I’ve tried intermittent fasting.

I’m terrified of GLP1s and the idea of being on another drug for life but what other options do I have? Any advice or suggestions more than welcome! 🙏🏻 😩
