@Afraser I was doing ok during radiation then I got shingles just before Christmas when i finished radiation. A few months later I started on Zoladex implants, so right now I'm really feeling the effects of menopause, hormones and weight gain. My problem is I like chocolate and eat it emotionally, so right now I'm trying to curb the habit.
@melclarity I only wish I could have started with the Encore program a few months ago when my menopause symptoms really started kicking in. But I shall wait until October. Glad you have found somebody to help you with exercise specific to bc recovery.
