You have dome amazing! Have so much to be proud of! 

Rob, you could be like me when I take that steroid I actually lose weight. I know when I was in the hospital and then the supplement month afterward when they kept me on high dose steroids about 1000 mg a day I was very concerned about gaining weight and then we found out that apparently I wanted the random people that loses weight on certain steroids. So apparently although most people gain weight on prednisone not everybody does 🤔🤷. Actually I found that I have to be very careful about any kind of medications they give me cuz I often will have adverse or alternative reactions to what the norm is or I'll have weird side effects that don't seem to make sense for the normal population. As a result I always try to go with the lowest dose of any medication possible regardless of Dr my recommendations because I found in the past that it can come to very severe consequences if I'm not careful. 

wow! that's amazing for 8 months! you did the work. congratulations 🎊  

With your losses and hard work Rob you will be in onederland in no time. 😀💪🔥 

congratulations to you  

Thanks for the fabulous and encouraging comments here and thanks to those that have supported me and this community is an extended family for me. Just a PSA: In a community like this their is growing pains and hurt feelings sometimes, but we need to remember that we all go through trials and hardships; so rather than beating each other up verbally; we should encourage them that are struggling. That’s my two cents for the day.  

Prednisone makes you hungry, congratulations on you weight loss, you have done we well! 

Congratulations! You are doing great! I enjoy hearing about your journey!👏👏 

congratulations! hard work and dedication has taken you really far 

Diana 1234 thanks and I enjoy hearing about yours as well 

albedolover thank you; but it’s not over for me yet still have 41lbs to still loose 

Sunny1954#; the last few times I was on it; I wasn’t hungry at all it curbed my hunger.  

Congrats on that amount of weight lost, you’re doing amazing! Onederland will be here in no time and those 41 pounds left won’t know what hit them when they’re gone! Keep up the great work, you got this! Hope you’re feeling better! 

You are a winner at weight loss ! Congratulations on establishing a new and healthier understanding and appreciation of food. 

FWYTYK; thanks for your support and encouragement. I am doing a little better but the more I try to do things with this illness the worse I tend to feel. I’m currently taking both prednisone and an antibiotic and it helps to a point. Kids at home are sick and it creates a ripple effect but this to shall pass.  

Honeebuns thank you for your kind words, I’ve learned so much by being here, and learned so much from everyone’s experiences here 

how wonderful! congratulations on a great success! 

You’re welcome! Glad to hear you are feeling a little better. Hopefully it will pass quickly so you can start feeling like yourself again and hopefully the kids get better soon as well. Being sick or injured sucks and it does indeed create a ripple effect when it happens. Take Care Rob! 

That is amazing, Rob. Good for you!
