I am not but during my cancer treatment I lost about 18 pounds (maybe it was more than this) and only about 8 pounds came back. It has stayed where it is for such a long time that it seems to be my "new normal". Though it may not be a medically perfect weight my blood pressure went from not good and the doc talking about prescribing medication for it to good readings. I am comfortable with it and just don't worry about it anymore. When I occasionally weigh, I am amazed that the weight stays the same even when I treat myself. Yes, it is a blessing because most of my life it went up and down and when it was up, I felt terrible about it because I did not like how I looked. Feeling bad about the weight may have made me want to eat more (we are what we think to some extent ) I wonder if age is a factor in the stability too. Also, learning not to be as anxious or as worried about my looks (and therefore not "dieting") helped too!

But I do know that some of the drugs we take make us hungry all of the time--when I was on chemo they gave me an antipsychotic for a couple of days each treatment to control my nausea) and for some they must take their mental health medications or the outcomes can be disasterous. I wish they could discover better ones.
