How far I have come since my last chemo treatment. My energy levels are good. I can get through a full day of work. I still don't have energy to do too many days in a row though. If I have a "big" day with lots of activity, I'm pretty beat the next day.
I have lost about half the weight I put on during chemo treatment. Aside from my "treats" after treatments, I have been eating healthy. Lots of fruits and vegetables, lean meats, and whole grains. I have been preparing most of my meals again, too.
My exercising is still not what it once was but it is better. During chemo, I could barely walk down the block to the park. Thanksgiving weekend I started walking on the beach. It was quite the effort to get to the water's edge. Now, three months later I can make it to the pier and back - almost 3 miles round trip. I've been hitting buckets of golf balls, about 2-3 per week.
It feels so good to be feeling better.
