Core Tip	Weight gain occurs in the majority of women following breast cancer treatment, especially those who are younger, closer to ideal body weight and who have been treated with chemotherapy. Although weight gain may be modest, changes are consistent with sarcopenic obesity. Women are unlikely to return to pre-diagnosis weight. Although the degree of weight gain does not appear to significantly alter prognosis, associated changes in metabolism and inactivity are of concern. Interventions should be promoted to avoid weight gain.
