Thanks all for the responses! A lot of good thoughts.

I have about an hour left on my first chemo. Had my first radiation treatment this morning. A lot of firsts I wish I didn't need, but it's the only way forward.

David, I'm sitting in the infusion center at Moffitt. We'll have to catch up for a ride one of these days. I ride the Pinellas trail to work once a week. My wife and I both have mountain and road bikes. So we do get in a mix of riding.

Sounds like I have two weeks to sort through excercise and eating. Good points on the calories burned/needed.The doctor also recommends "bulking up". A bowl of ice cream before bed each night. We'll see how it goes.

Thanks again for the input, much appreciated!
