I was on strict Atkins for 3 years prior to diagnosis as my husband is diabetic and that diet controls blood sugar very well. So no sugar, no bread, lots of water, I don't drink soda pop,-- we ate fairly healthy. Sauteed spinach, garlic and tomatoes with scrambled eggs for breakfast were our favorite. Some suralose for sweetener.
With chemo/Herceptin--I couldn't stop craving sweets. Now off Herceptin--I don't crave sweets. I had lost 35 pounds prior to diagnosis. I have now gained back12 of them.
