MUST HAVE BEEN EXCESS WATER

Apr 242008

Well as it turns out, that 4 pound weight loss I was so concerned about, wasn’t anything to be worried about. As of a few minutes ago, I’m back up to the same weight I was last Thursday. I’d like to say I’m happy about that, but I’m really not. Why can’t I seem to lose any weight, as hard as I try?

Keep in mind, if you have already lost all your fat (which I suspect you have), any further weight loss would be muscle. I don’t think you want that.

A little about me

Hi, my name is Marc [that's my wife Edie beside me], and I have Mantle Cell Lymphoma, a typically aggressive form of lymphoma, except it so seems in my case.

I was diagnosed over 10 years ago, and have managed to survive since then without treatment, by following a few simple rules. Eat a [mostly] well balanced diet, exercise (cycling, at least up until recently), abstaining from taking supplements or any medications, drinking 5 to 6 cups of [Japanese] green tea a day, and most importantly [lots of good wine], flossing and brushing my teeth twice a day, everyday.

I started this blog mainly to chronicle my life, putting down in writing what goes through the mind of a cancer survivor (although I have been seen straying into unrelated areas on occasion), and along the way help educate others about lymphomas and other blood cancers, and filter out some of the hype and misinformation so often associated with the internet, which unfortunately there is plenty.
