I have gained 13 pounds since stopping Taxotere/steriods and just on Herceptin. Was too scared to eat on chemo! And with the steriods I was constantly moving around. I am sure I am eating more now and less active though have better energy for doing tough yard work, etc.
Never had some of the middlie of the night cravings before. I stop Herceptin this month or next, so will see if I can lose the weight. I need to be more disaplined in my eating. Better choice of foods. I had been on a strict low carb, high fat diet prior to cancer as my husband is diabetic and it keeps his numbers perfect. Going off that has been hard. Sure was fun being on a diet that allowed FAT! and I lost weight!
It sure would be nice to stop Herceptin and have the weight magically fall off! LOL
