There's definitely a relation, when I'm getting sick or sick my weight drops as much as 10 pounds and when I start ivs my appetite usually gets better and I gain well. There's been times where I've gained 9lbs in three days while on ivs and I don't have a feeding tube so that's just me stuffing my face pretty much 24/7. This past round I think I gained about 3-5lbs and I'm maintaining it so far. Its a constant battle though since I stopped playing hockey. I have 3 bins for my jeans because I go back and forth on size, today I realized my "baggy" jeans are no longer baggy <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0"> My weight was at its best (125lbs which was huge for me!) when I was super active and doing softball, marching band, and hockey because most of my weight was muscle so I kept it on better. Get Alyssa some little weights and start building her up! lol
