    Thanks, Dodi. You don't know how much that means to me. I felt so good after I read what you said. Yes it is a little over 2 years now.

    Love & hugs Jackie

    I'm working on losing the 15 lbs I put on during the 6 weeks I was off work with my hyesterectomy. I'm doing Weight Watchers, and it's working well. I don't know anything about diet and radiation treatment...but it sounds like Jackie & Jane are pointing you in the right direction.

    Dodi, Ask to meet with a Nutritionist. In Kingston, they set an appointment with one for you. I found out that I could eat Iceberg lettuce, but not Romaine, and that I could have some fruit if it was peeled...kind of trial and error, but Jane is so right about the white rice and pasta!

    Dodi- I know you'll do great. You might want to forget dieting for now! I recommend pasta and white rice during radiation. Very mild diet. No fresh fruits or veggies - they all have to be cooked. No lettuce or salad, I hate to say. If you skip raw things, you'll sail through radiation with no intestinal side-effects. I am adding back fresh fruit now (weeks after rad), but still no salad . . .

    Maybe cut down the portions, or finish everything before you add dieting to the mix!

    All the best,
    Jane
