Hairy Bikers star Dave Myers, who was diagnosed with cancer in 2022, has spoken openly and honestly about the "brutal" effects of chemotherapy. Dave listed having no appetite and losing a lot of weight as some of the effects.
Speaking on Tommy Banks' Seasoned podcast, Dave explained he was still undergoing treatment and the side effects meant he could barely eat more than a can of soup. He said: ''It's funny when you first start chemotherapy… it's quite hard. I'm still having it. It really was brutal.
"I lost so much weight and then it's a battle to get your calories in. At first I thought, 'Right, this is great, I can eat all those pies I haven't been eating for years', except [my] appetite was dreadful! For me, a glutton, losing my appetite was awful. A can of soup was about as far as I could go."
