I was on steroids the day before, of and after chemo and it seems my appetite was normal (sleeping was NOT though!). Just the last few days nothing sounds appealing. I did go and buy some applesauce, protein drinks, and nuts to bring to work for throughout the day.

The coffee thing is weird - I LOVE my coffee and was completely dependent on it morning, noon, and afternoon...now I'm a bit depressed because it doesn't taste right at all. Thankfully, no withdrawal headaches to report though

I am about 15 pounds heavier than I should be, so I won't be wasting away anytime soon!
