I am 34 years old, was diagnosed with NHL, completed 5 cycles of Chemo, PET/CT Scan showing no activity present.
In 3 weeks my 6th Cycle will get over.
I have gained weight, around 10 - 11 kg in the course of cycles. i would like to regain my shape.
Can you give me tips on proper diets & exercises.

Regards ,

Bobby

Hi Bobbie, Congrats on being almost done with treatment. I'm afraid our focus isn't on the subjects of either NHL or fitness/nutrition. You're doctors will be the best judge to say how far you should push yourself right now. A balanced diet is always the best when possible. Many people taking chemo do best eating small meals more often. If you haven't exercised in a while starting slowly is best. These aren't cancer specific though just general rules.

All best,
Janine
