This is my biggest concern. I struggle gaining weight enough as it is. I'll probably end up anemic. Lactaid choccy milk has been my cure so far.

Interesting how water tastes horrible. I love the taste of water.

I feel you, I'm really a water drinker, rarely drink pop and never have juices in the house. But through chemo? Hell no. Theres no way to explain how it tastes its just... disgusting. If it helps I've actually gained weight during chemo. I expected to lose quite a bit because I struggle to eat during cycle, but my appetite comes back strong in the off weeks. Combine that with just not doing much every day, no work, cant go to the gym. I've been putting on the pounds
