Finally, after one year and a half and getting hypertension, I could get rid of the darn pred. However, I gained 14 kilos and I was just wondering if I could lose them. I already lost the moon face during the tapering phase but I have got a rounded face instead of my normal bony face. Also, after stopping it, I noticed that some clothes have become loose somehow. I don't work out as I don't have any energy and all I do is go to work, otherwise I stay in bed in the weekends. Most of the weight gain is fat collections in my legs, abdominal area and back. Are there any suggestions? I know that the weight loss won't be that quick but I'd like to lose some.
Thank you very much
