Leticia,
It¡¯s great that you got your appetite back. Thanks for the link.
I bought a bag of Amal powder, heard it can stimulate appetite.

Hi there,
I was diagnosed in September with stage 1B BC. Had surgery in December, radiation and next is Letrozole. My weight started at 130. With combination of severe anxiety, surgery, and diet, I lost a total of 16 pounds. I'm in a better place anxiety wise, eating well, meditation, and exercising when I can. I dropped all sugar, white carbs, dairy and red meats. I started Budwig in November but have not gained a single pound back in spite of my appetite returning to normal. I'm guessing that the cleaner diet and exercise is keeping me at 114 but I feel great. Still learning nutrition, but I'm going to continue the FOCC indefinitely. The only other food supplement I'm taking is Biosuperfood F3 microalgae, which is high in astaxanthin. I'll include the link in case you want to look into it.
Blessings to you and your mom.
Leticia?
I hope this group can shed some light on this.
My mom used to be chubby and now she is at 114 but her tummy is still quite "chubby". I give her essential oil massage and the tummy is not hard like a pregnant person. She said that when people get old no matter how much weight they lost, their tummies stay the same.
Her appetite is still iffy and eating like a toddler now (improvement from December/January when she was literally eating like a bird). She would not allow me to weigh her but I feel that she is losing weight.
I took notes of what she ate the last few days and noticed they hover around 1800 calories only.
So I would think the weigh loss is due to low caloric intake, right? The tummy being the same size is her age?
