WOW - I don't even know where to begin. I'm a 29-year-old from middle GA and I am tired of being tired and overweight. I was recently diagnosed with lupus (SLE) and with it came a lot of problems. Because of the kidney involvement, I'm on 2 medications to regulate my BP. I take Prenisone for inflammation, which has caused me to gain 100 lbs. Prednisone is a steroid, which increases my appetite. My doctors say the same thing when I go - "You've got to lose weight." How can they expect me to lose weight when the meds contribute to a lot of it. When I get stressed, I tend to eat. I need help and am interested in bariatric surgery. Please give me advice or even a few encouraging words.. Thanks to all of you! :)
