Hi Stephanie- It could be your thyroid gland. sometimes it gets damaged in radiation and that effects the metabolism so make sure they check that out. Most likely its just your body wanting to get nourished and get back to a normal weight and get extra vitamins and nutrients. I ate like crazy too once I was eating solids agin. The other thing is that you are eating differently so your body is adjusting to that and maybe working harder.

When I get below 100 I woudl come home form work everyday and make cupcakes... can't do that anymore but it sure was a blast while it lasted.

Good luck at the Dr. Tommorrow KATE
