 I have always been thin, but purposely so----now, I think it was a mistake to try and maintain my weight of 100 lbs when I am 5'-3".  I also did not want to gain wt. during my chemo with BC, because {my sister had BC 6 yrs. ago,and her Onc told her the chemo for BC would make her GAIN lbs.  She gained from 110lbs to 145 lbs. She was ER+PR+,but HER2-.  She did not have her breast removed, but took A/C followed by Taxotere and Rad., then Tamoxifin, and now Aromasin. She is Still having a hard time trying to lose wt.,She got up to 150lbs, even dieting and exercising. Last week her doc. gave her some diet pills with a refill. You can see why  I continued dieting thru chemo. Now, I'm TOO THIN and could stand to gain 10 lbs with exercise and toning.  I am alittle on the anoxeric side from fear of becoming too fat.---Kat in the Delta |
