I need to vent for a few minutes. Taking steroids causes you to gain weight, I’ve both heard and read that weight gained by steroids can be more difficult to lose. I believe it and Ill tell you why. If you are taking steroids due to inability to move - hoping for your ability to return to you, right off the bat, you can’t do as much exercise as you used to. Unless you drastically change your diet - weight you would have lost in 2 weeks, might take a bit longer than that to lose.
How can people who are not on steroids tell you that steroid weight is just like all other weight and should be no harder to lose than weight gain caused by other medications or just being overweight. It’s all the same - because they lost weight while taking a medication that causes weight gain steroids shouldn’t be any different. It’s an excuse to think that there is a difference.
Vexxed.
I guess it bothers me that I’ve allowed it to bother me. I should really know by now that many people don’t know a great deal about MS, and just run their mouths. I try to let things go. I couldn’t this time.
