Just sharing my story to see if anyone can relate.
I have ulcerative colitis and recently had a flare and was prescribed prednisone. You’d think I would have lost weight but I was already a bit heavy (I try to stay around 135-140) and was at 148.
Fast forward from august to November and I’m off prednisone and I’m now at 160.
I started watching what I was eating but I didn’t feel like I was losing weight. Today I weighed in at 160…
I’ve never seen a number higher than 155 on a scale and I’m just devastated. There are other effects of the medications and treatments like hair loss that I’m also dealing with on top of this and I’m just really down.
I’ve started to get a meal delivery service for dinner. I’m hoping this will help but with the holidays I’m just embarrassed to see anyone.
Advice is welcome.
