Thank you for that response Chris. That's very encouraging to here! And based on some other posts in this forum I have re-dedicated myself to doing the exercises daily going forward. A small price to pay to eventually bite into that pepperoni pizza 🙂

When I was at your stage in recovery I was reaching out on Twitter to all of the celebrities who went through what we did to see if they could eat normal food again. At that time, I didn't know about this forum. None of them ever responded.

Truth be told, I just found this Support group because I recently came to the realization that the treatment we went through is going to be with us for the rest of our lives. I am now dealing with thyroid issues and one or two other possible problems. Overall, I felt like I was getting back to "normal" but I don't think that's a reality for us. The radiation we went through will be with us forever. I think it's going to be very important to get back on board with those exercises that were absolute torture during the treatment. That and positive thinking, general exercise, stretching, yoga, meditation, etc.

I just bought a red light sauna and look forward to setting that up soon. Anyway, John, you will eat all the food you want to again and the good news is, the cancer is gone and it shouldn't come back because they blasted the heck out of it. Cheers!
