Seeing as some threads have been on the subject of weight gain, I wanted some help on weight LOSS. I waited to see if I managed to put the wait on over the last few weeks, but as I have failed and may still be losing weight I felt I had to start this thread.
I was very thin to start off with - weighing just over 9 stones.
But since my flare a month ago I've lost almost - if not - a stone (approx 13/14lbs)
Clothes which once fit me perfect now just hang off. Jeans need that little extra strength on the belt.
This is extremely worrying as I eat very well (even though I am a vegetarian).
I eat lots of carbs - pasta, potato's, rice, pizza etc. I also eat snacks (sensibly) to help put weight on. But none of this is helping. I've also cut down on my exercise routine as I feel this may not help in putting on weight.
Has anyone had experience of this kind of weight loss? And can people who have been advised or have any knowledge please give me some tips.
I'm seeing my rhumy next week so will definitely be asking her.
