Weight
I have avoided weighing myself for months because I suspected I had put on some weight. Yesterday at the hospital they weighed me which confirmed it.
I can't handle gaining weight.
A while ago I ...
I'm on Tamoxifen and I know that has contributed to my weight gain.It has also cranked up the hot flushes and sleepless nights. Now I take a low dose antidepressant(endep)and that helps me sleep and reduces hot flushes.I don't know what you are on but I guess the side effects are a bother - all of these drugs seem to be.You sound like an expert on fitness and healthy eating.But it also seems you are pushing yourself an awful lot what with work and training 6 days a week- especially after breast cancer treatments.Gosh,no wonder you are tired in the morning.I have a daughter(27)who I would say hedges around an eating disorder.She is tall and thin-52kgs and is always going on this or that diet but basically eats healthy. When she puts on a few kilos she actually looks better for it. If you were underweight before maybe the few extra kilos look good on you? You probably need the snacks to get you through the day.Don't think you should be trying to make improvements on your already physically demanding week.I don't know how you manage what you do.
