I hike 5-6 hours a week. I take my 2 german shepherds. Since one is new and a pup (at 100 pounds) I get my upper body work-out too. I did not gain any weight throughout treatment- but I haven't lost any either!! And I need to lose about 30 pounds just to get to a healthy BMI. I have a pretty good diet (exception- December!) and really get a good workout on these hills. I am hoping that once I finish herceptin, some weight will drop. Darn menopuase!!!

(My weight blame game: three babies in 4 years, breast cancer treatment, menopause....and the blame continues....)
