i have lupus and am on and off steroids so it has been a uphill battle to loose weight. I am looking for MFP friends that I can talk to and be accountable with my diet to. I am just starting back with MFP. I would really like to connect with someone who has similar health issues as I could use some tips on how to loose weight while on and off steroids.

    Hi Christy! Welcome to MFP. I don't have lupus, but HAVE had to be on steroids once or twice, so I understand how hungry they can make you. Good luck! :flowerforyou:

    Hi Christy! I have lupus, too. The weight struggle is real. I am a yo yo MFP user and I could use a friend with the same issues to help motivate me to stay one track. I previously lost 80lbs, but have put 50 back on since my lupus got worse. Partly, it's the steroids, partly it's the inability to exercise like I used to, and partly using food for comfort when I'm sick.
