Better weight loss with chemotherapy

The picture you see here is from my watch. (I'm a nerd with an Apple Watch.) It got sent to me after weighing myself this morning.

Since I had chemo, I've had a much different appetite. I had really bad nausea for a week, which thankfully went away. 

For a while, I'd try to eat what was my normal amount of food, and feel really stuffed. Not eating for a week can do that to you. 

Since then, I've had a low level metal taste in my mouth. It's not enough to make me feel like barfing, but nothing seems appetizing. 

Whenever I'm hungry, I used to walk to the fridge and grab anything. 

Now, I walk to the fridge, look at something, think it doesn't sound appetizing, then do that with 100 other things. I then get a glass of water. 

Chemo has forced me to think about my food choices. 

Anyway, I'm losing a fair amount of muscle, (my blood doesn't oxygenate like yours does, and won't for a while, so exercise is off the table,) but I'm also losing fat. It's from legitimately eating healthy. 

What I did won't work for most people as a weight-loss plan, but it did show me I have to think about my dietary choices for longer than it takes to reach for a little wheel of cheese from the fridge. 

I weigh ten lbs. less than I did a month ago.
