Weight gain

I am 2 year post sleeve surgery. Had lost 125 with about 50 more to go. I have an autoimmune disorder so for last 3 months I have been on prednisone and have been eating everything. I have gained 18 pds. I am so upset. Why can't I stop eating... Ugh

    I was on 40 mg for past 3 months now starting to come down. So now on about 20 mg a day. Dr said I probably won't be able to under 10 mg

    Unfortunately, increased appetite is a known effect of Prednisone. I'm sorry!

    @@tapslp It's been quite awhile since I've had prednisone but maybe if you have healthy alternatives to eat when the starving feeling comes - you'll not gain or gain less weight. Eat some cucumbers & hummus instead of chips, have a SF popsicle instead of ice cream. I wish you luck! Autoimmune disease sucks!
