Cancer surviors seeking fitness for health

hi! I've been doing MFP for a few months now and thought I'd introduce myself. I am about to finish treatment for breast cancer (Thursday!). I gained a lot of weight between comfort eating & all the steroids during chemo. I've got to get it off plus some for my health. Extra weight is a big contributing factor for reacurance and I want to do all I can to prevent that.

Are there any other survivors who want to encourage each other in the goals to fit?

  • Congrats on Finishing chemo! Absolutely! We can encourage each other in our efforts to become more fit. I gained a lot during my chemo treatment as well and am still on the pathway of being more fit. Let me know when you'd like to start.

  • I'm ready:). I finished radiation yesterday! My docs' said it was fine as long as I'm sticking to the 1-2 pounds a week.
