I, too, was diagnosed with estrogen-positive BC. Prior to diagnosis, I didn’t take hormones of any kind, and I didn’t drink soy beverages. However, for a few years before diagnosis, there was one thing I was consuming in large amounts — SUGAR! :-(
Since then, I try to eat mostly veggies now. But, every once in awhile, I fall off the wagon.
OMG? Sugar. I am a sugar junky also. She didn’t say anything about eating ‘sugar’ I esp. like semi-sweet chocolate. Cakes, cookies. Crap no wonder they say your diet will have to change.
Now with no hormones, hot flashes, no sweets, No more soothing Starbucks, I will become another raging green hulk.
I really wanted to get away from SB anyway. One good thing.
