Weight gain, harder to lose after NHL treatment

it’s been two years since my last round of chemo. I’m exercising 4-6 days / week, and haven’t changed my diet. I’m finding it hard to drop weight, and actually seem to put it on faster than ever. Anyone else experience this after R-CHOP?

    Weight gain

    I finished 6 rounds of Rchop in November. I have also been gaining weight. I was happy with the 1st 20 lbs. I have been exercising and watching what I eat also. I seem to gain it mostly in my stomach. I’m very happy to be in remission but I would love to stop gaining weight.
