Thank you, I appreciate your input. Can you expand on what type of personal trainer would be the best. Are you referring to the type you would find at most fitness clubs, or someone more experienced in treating cancer patients. Up to now I am attending Yoga, Pilates, Qi gong, and stretching classes at my local senior center. I feel very good after every class, but it isn't helping with weight gain. I welcome any other suggestions you have. Thank you.
