I’ll tell ya, when I was on 20 mgs of Prednisone I’m not sure it was possible to lose weight. Some days I ate like a bird and exercised and drank water and ate the min acceptable amount of sodium, tracking like a crazed scientist and the scale didn’t move or I actually gained.
I’m on 1 mg and this drug is so nasty it wouldn’t surprise me if it is influencing at at least slightly.
But, I agree, restaurants seem to add calories and salt and sugar left and right. And with ANY pred in me Sugar is a horrible weight gainer.
I did not have alcohol.
BUT, there are things I did while eating on this trip I would NOT do at home while eating at a local restaurant. I often do not have ANY salad dressing at all do to possible sugar.
If I have a potato, normally I only eat HALF!
Plus, no way would I go out for all my meals.
It just go to show you how bad restaurant food is.
Plus I have a little extra burden with pred. in my system.
Carbs are an extra issue with pred in my system. And sugar creates an abnormal and quick gain.
ughhhhhhh
Thank you!!!!!
