It's all pretty variable. I too lost quite a lot of weight during chemo with no nausea - but I lost my taste buds, most food was at best uninteresting and wine tasted horrible so all of that helped. After chemo I took out a subscription to a gym (nothing like paying up front to keep you going!), cut back on alcohol (after 6 months not drinking that was fairly easy) and kept up my chemo gut health (more greens, fibre, prunes). I have put back a couple of kilos but maintained that weight fairly well. I don't do anything very dramatic at the gym - mainly yoga, walking, cycling and some weights. Which is where I am going now - regularity is the most effective, and the hardest, action!
