Anyone trying to lose weight with Crohn's disease or taking a lot of medication?

Options
Hello I've recently been put on a lot more meds than I'm used to and I've certainly put on weight probably around 10lbs, I feel doughy is the best description. I have crohn's and find that losing weight is such a struggle which is generally the opposite to which most people experience!! Just wondering if there is anyone else out there who feels they are fighting a losing battle due to health issues

    I feel ya! I'm a large crohnie. My diet needs to be mostly carb based to ease my symptoms which does nothing for my weight. I also stuffer fatigue which means I don't exercise as often as I should either. Meds are always a gamble. I've had to stop one of mine due to a cancer scare so currently only on humira injections fortnightly.
