I did not crave sweets during Taxol but do during Herceptin (the day or so after and I get the every 3 week treatment). I do resist. Sometimes during chemo, I had cravings and during that time, I resisted even more. I can honestly say that I did not eat anything sweet and did not even eat fruit alone (only with the meal so that protein could lower the glycemic index) during chemo as sugar is cancer's best friend.


Now, I am still strict with the fruit but I will have a piece of chocolate now and again (a couple of Hershey kisses) once a week or so. I try not to buy it or I will have it - especially after Herceptin.
