Default Restart after medicine weight gain - ugh

Started the journey in 2010 and loss over 40lbs total. Kept it off mostly until 2013 when I started taking back prednisone long-term as well as other meds. Well since coming off, I simply cannot drop the weight. All my usual tips and tricks no longer work. I know at 38 that it is getting increasingly difficult to lose weight easily so I am trying to mix it up and see where this journey takes me.

I hate my new size and am ready to tackle it like I did before. My motivation is that I did it once and now I can do it again. Something tells me this isn't going to be easy.

You can do it! Just keep trying until you figure out what works for you now.

I'm 41, almost 42, and I was diagnosed with PCOS about 10 years ago. Is it harder? Yeah, probably. But I don't allow myself to think in those terms. I just keep working at figuring out what works now.

Good luck!

It is hard and likely that I might get new pills. Using calorie counting as that works for me. Hopefully it will work for me again.

Good luck! I'm in the same boat. I gained a lot in the last year on a medication. I'm weaning myself off right now. Hopefully I'll see some weight loss. I was most successful when I was on here regularly. We can do this!

I realize that..being on here regularly, measuring my food and wearing a pedometer kept me in check
