I was 25 when I was diagnosed with Hodgkins. Mine is the type they can't tell how it happened (like yours at such a young age). I have had a lot of issues with eating, not disorders, but i've probably been harder on my body than I should. I let stress stop me from eating right and exercising. I feel like since I had cancer I should make my health a priority and it is not. But then I think, well, it wasn't really food that caused it so what does it matter. It's just very emotional and the IBS doesn't help. I can't even eat fruit without getting sick. But yet, I can handle a pizza? It makes no sense whatsoever. My sister thinks I'm crazy that fruit get me ill but not pizza. I'm just to my wits end with it all at this point. As far as your bloating from chemo, I think that will get better. I think it's great that you can get back to the gym. I lost 20 pounds while on treatment, but then over the last five years, I've gained about 40 or so. I really want to lose some weight too, but can't follow the conventional fruits/salads type diets.
