told you not to put a pic up of me, DiscoDes I hate the way i am after all the steroids, desperately trying to lose the steroid look hopefully next year will have lost it provided i don't need anymore for a while, I will let you off this once though, you have managed to do what no family member has managed in 5 years to take a pic of me. I avoid camera's until i'm slim again, used to be 7.5 stone 8 years ago before this illness hit

clairea your health is much more important than a few pounds.

I was 6 stone when I went on the steroids - 60mg prednisolone daily, it bloats you , and the water shows weight gain on the scales, but they do not make people fat, that is a myth, just bloated.

I have put weight on, because old age, middle age spread and good living ( or is that junk food living cos you are too ill to cook proper?) does that, but I am now 8st ( 49kg to be exact ) and many days my ankles and fingers are so swollen they hurt like hell and look horrendous, but it is keeping me going.

Yes I want to be able to wear skirts and dresses, but no can do it's a small price to pay for been alive. Don't worry about weight, been alive and as healthy as you can be is more important, anyone decent sees the person inside.

I had a super high dose of prednisolone to save my eye sight, was 500mg even the chemist flinched and checked the amount with hospital it was new years eve,  then it was reduced by half then half again then very very slowly by 5mg a day until i came off it, then had to go back on 20mg a day for a massive allergic reaction to something that i still don't know what it was but was making 360 cupcakes for a fair at the time so one of the ingredients set me off lol, my left leg is huge compared to my right leg so i don't wear skirts do wear the odd pair of long shorts though. I'm just not happy with myself, i got told off by the dietician for not eating enough so my body stored it as fat as i was only eating one small meal a day, i still don't eat enough, but now try to eat 3 meals a day. I rarely drink, i do like sweet stuff but have that in moderation as diabetic, i don't snack between meals but it's lack of exercise for me as well, used to be super active, and now i can't even walk up the hallway with out being in pain. There are no gyms near me that help with disabled so i'm stuck, physio once every couple of months is not enough.

But yes i'd rather be alive, than in a pile of ashes somewhere,

Yep not eating enough your body will store fat as it thinks it is starving.

All of us with illnesses know lack of exercise will make us bigger as well, but you got to vapefest so that is good, like I said don't worry about extra pounds on the scales

If we'd stopped and let me pose, we'd have had those raffle prizes! 

[Raffles]

Just wanted to say thanks to all that took the pics and uploaded them to here for all of us to enjoy... and so glad everyone seemed to have a good time. Have your heads recovered yet. ???

Hangovers are for wimps, but did get through about 40 cans of beer*, half a litre of 63 % rum*, a pint or two of DiscoDes's cider and quite a bit of dagl's various spirits. 

(* not all on my own, everyone was shearing what they had)
