I think I weighed like 180-200lbs when I started and honestly I feel like my transition has been useless because of this and I should of been denied hrt. And I look super ugly

I’m gonna parrot others and say that we aren’t licensed professionals.
However…
Unless you are on the shorter side, 180ish should be fine, I think? It’s about where I am currently, and I’m not flabby by any means. What do you mean you should have been denied HRT? Are you having health side effects? If the hormone treatment isn’t being effective, talk to your doctor to increase your dose. I’m sure it’s like other medications: BMI can affect dosage and absorption levels, and every body is different.
If you are concerned about your body image, the only thing any of us can really suggest is diet and exercise. Anecdotally, keto did wonders for a while, but at the end of it all, it all boils down to CICO, calories in vs calories out. Consume less sugars and breads, and try to use more calories than you are putting in.
At the end of it all, talk to your doctor. Maybe it’s the delivery method? Perhaps see about changing to a different medication. Injections or patches might do better than pills.
I’m on the taller side for cis women so I guess I should get off hrt huh?
What? I said the opposite. If you’re taller, your BMI should be lower. Look, idk what demons you’re dealing with, but, ultimately, the decision to transition is up to you. Don’t look to any of us weather you should be on hormones. It’ll work. Again, dosage is probably ithe issue, and if you are at max dose? Talk to the doc about different meds.
If you think hormones aren’t for you, that’s fine too. But I am not qualified, and will not tell you positively or negatively weather you should be on hormones
I mean my doctor said my levels were normal
Cool. Give it time, then. You remember the first time you went thru puberty? Rome wasn’t built in a day, friend.
Also, you saying you are on the taller side for cis women is a non-issue. You are a beautiful Amazonian babe, I’m sure.
