That's Mr Nucklehead to you!
Eric, Margaret, Angelia and everyone else,
I wasn't talking about moving around the house and I wasn't talking about any other cancer Tx other than what we typically have to endure. I was merely pointing out I just don't see any logic to exercising, however mildly, when we are in the throws of our brutal and barbaric Tx. I tried to consume 2000 cals a day during Tx and I lost a tremendous amount of weight like everyone else, I consumed 3000 cals a day post Tx for over a year and I didn't gain a pound so my logic tells me that my body was really working behind the scenes in overtime and I just don't see the overall benefit to add any more stress to it.
Certainly I'm not a Biophysicist or whatever someone might be called that could really answer this question but that's just my thinking.
Re this COLD crap we have here....the news reported this am that's it's the worse cold snap we have had in 25 years. So my question to Al G is WHERE EXACTLY IS THIS GLOBAL WARMING????
