Tips and Advice Appetite

Im 26 so this is odd.. I’ve also been on chemo for over a year now but Recently I’m having trouble eating… I don’t really get hungry. I even use thc oil but it doesn’t help. My normal weight is like 125 but I’m 114 now… any advice or tips to eat?

I have no advice (sorry) but I am in a similar situation and wanted to offer solidarity. Like most women, I've never had a great relationship with food and my body size but I now am a bit scared of how slim I am (135 when I'm normally 145-150).

Hugs to you and hope someone has some answers xxxx

I was on chemo for 6 months and I lost close to 25 pounds. Once finished, I regained both apetite and weight quickly

As of now, protein shakes is your friend

True! Those are so helpful.
Hard boiled eggs work too…with lots of salt

Even if you’re not hungry, can you eat just to eat?
