I have Lupus and because of a serious flareup was put on steroids. I have been off of them for some time now, but no matter what I do can't lose the weight I gained while on the meds. I attend weight watchers and had to stop because I was paying for nothing I have Increased my excercise but am not getting any smaller. I saw a plant based diet product on the web called Quick Slim and was impressed by the results. I thought maybe using something like this may help. Has anyone tried this???
 
Sorry I can't help you with your question, but just wanted to let you know I feel for you! My mom has lupus, so even though I haven't experienced it myself, I have witnessed what she goes through. She does very well, but is always on at least a small dose of steriods.

I remember a few years ago Shape magazine had an article about a woman who lost weight and had lupus. It was one of the success stories. You might find it in their archives.

Hang in their! Your weight gain is not your fault! It did really bother my mom when her face got puffy, but the way she looked at it was-take the medicine and it's side effects or die. And she would have died had she not started them.

Take Care,
Susan
