weight gain
I had lumoectomy back in April..have finished 6 rounds of chemo & about to start radiation next week but i have gained 10 kg & i hate it. I have had weight prob in the past & i know how difficult it...
I put on 14 kgs after having 4 x ac and 12 x paclitaxel..unfortunately food is my friend and I ate my way through it. I guess we have to do our best to get through somehow. I finished radio therapy 30/6/2011 and was feeling like crap. I decided that I had to help myself. Weight loss for me is a bitch I hate it because I love love love my food. Anyway it had to be done. I joined weight watchers and have lost about 7kgs so am half way there but am also starting to feel a little better and have more energy. I also saw a naturopath and accupuncturist. I felt like I have been given a second chance so I have to help myself now. I am walking 40 mins 5 days per week. Once you finish your treatment give yourself little time for the dust to settle and then make a plan for your recovery. Its hard at the start but it gets better...good luck xox
