ofdwolf's Journal, 17 September 2017

Hey FS Warriors

Sorry I have not been around very much lately; the last round has been the roughest one since round 4. Additionally, some of you may recall that last spring after finding out I would put on chemo I had to drop the college classes I was taking at that time. Well for the past four weeks I've been a student again and it has taken a lot of my free time away.

Unfortunately chemo brain is a real thing and has made this the most difficult learning experience in my life. I have always been able to process and retain anything I read instantly but I struggle to retain even a sentence at a time. I'm getting through and getting good grades but I have to work harder than I ever had to in my life.

Health wise I'm maintaining my weight between 158 and 162 a little higher than I like but the steroid struggle is real. Still jogging 3 times a week, I finished the couch25k program again and am just free running now between 20-30 minutes each time. The hernia binder make breathing rough sometimes especially when its humid.

Keep Grinding

Bill

You are doing well. this is my first time posting on this FatSecret but I saw your message and had to respond. You are doing well. I am a breast cancer survivor and chemo took me out for 6 months and a gained a ton of weight. I was unable to workout and I ate the worst foods when I could eat Now that I am done with that part of my life i'm trying to get back on track. I finished up chemo in December 2016 and radiation in March 20117 and i'm finally starting to feel like the old me.

Thank you all for the kind words. Congrats MsDawn you did what you needed to beat cancer and gaining weight was the least of your concerns while battling. I understand how hard it is to not gain weight on chemo, the steroids they gave me made me always hungry for 5 or 6 days after every treatment. I was lucky enough to be able to work out so that really helped. Good luck to you on your weight loss journey. You are in the right place there is so much support here from amazing people who understand your weight loss battle.
