Hi @Chrissy1121,
I was never on chemo ( mastectomy, radiotherapy and now hormone therapy) but when I got diagnosed I decided to lose some weight.
I have always had a sweet tooth ( when I go to a nice restaurant I look at the dessert menu first)!
I pretty much eliminated sweets including cakes , sweet biscuits , chocolates ,sweet drinks - and if I want something sweet I will have a piece of fruit ( or a combination of fruit) .
I find that has really helped me keep the weight off I lost and is sufficiently sweet to satisfy my ( retrained ) taste buds.
All the best - none of this stuff is easy.
