Losing weight after treatment is done.

I know there are a lot of older posts on this but was wondering if any newbies that are done with treatment would like to start a support group for losing the weight from all the steroids and cortisol.   I don't know about you guys but I was expecting to gain so much weight and be so puffy.  I put on 50 lbs and a nice hump on my back  from the built of cortisol called a buffalo hump.   Nice right!   Couldn't they think of a more attractive thing to call that!  I have been done with treatment now since June and have returned to working out and doing fitness pal.  But the weight is coming off VERY slowly!   I am Triple negative with BRAC 1 positive.  So they want to take out my ovaries at some point. I am worried this will throw me into menopause early and cause me my metabolism to slow down even more.   Patience is not my biggest virtue and I feel like I have been so positive thru this whole thing that at 40 I deserve to at least be able to be mad about this.  I don't want to buy the next size up and would love my rings to fit again!   Would love some others to vent with and to start a motivation group with.  Anyone out there in?
