Hi @lynnj3
I always ate protein (eggs, avocado, yogurt) for breakfast, nuts and fruit for snacks and protein (chicken, beef, whatever I could stomach) with vegetables and rice or potatoes. I did lose a little weight at first, but then when I had AC, I gained 20 lbs from the steroids. I would ask your doctor and remind him/her that you lost 15 lbs in 3 weeks. He might have suggestions to help too and also, it may be a side affect of one of the drugs that may be worth looking into. I did have BOOST protein drinks after chemo to help with energy and boy did I think they tasted good and I got 20 - 30 mg of protein per shake. It may be time now to splurge a little and eat some ice cream or cheese or those more high calorie foods? Good luck!! p.s. I lost the 20 lbs after chemo so I'm back to my normal weight...
