Weight loss for the cancer survivor: Keeping your body weight at a healthy range can improve the outcome of cancer treatment. Cancer diagnosis and treatment experience often affects body weight (either a gain or loss in weight) and a decrease in physical function. Side effects can cause weight gain, increases in body fat and loss of muscle. This weight gain increases the risk for recurrent and second cancers. For those undergoing cancer treatment a BMI of 35 and over have a reduced survival rate compared to those at a healthy body weight and body composition, losing weight therefore is essential for life.
