Ek is reeds 2 maande af van die behandeling, maar sukkel om die gewig af te bring. Bly die kortisoon lank in jou gestel en is daar einge raad behalwe die gewone goeie raad vir gewig verloor ? 6 Pin It user comments Posted by: Penny | 2006/01/28 Baie dankie vir julle antwoorde. Ek hou aan met reg eet en ry redelik fiets, so 40 km in 'n week. So ek glo een of ander tyd moet dit beter gaan. Wens net daar was 'n middel wat kon help om dit weer uit jou gestel te kry. Die ironie is dat ek dit nie regtig nodig gehad het nie. Die spesialis was bang daar was 'n toestand wat hy nie sy vinger op kon lê nie en daarom die kortisoon. Ek sal moed hou en aanhou. Sterkte vir almal op die paadjie !! Reply to Penny Posted by: Savanna | 2006/01/17 Hi MThe thing with cortisone is that it bloats you and you retain a lot of water. It also increases your appetite. You are lucky to not have to use it permanently. I unfortunately will probably be on it for life BUT thanks to Dr Cohens eating plan I have lost so much weight and even the puffyness in my face has gone down a lot. THis after someone once told me I would NEVER lose weight while I was on cortisone... Never say never - where there is a will, there is a way! Reply to Savanna Posted by: M | 2006/01/16 hi I also took cortisone last year for a long time- i put on a lot of weight (5-6 kgs). I've been off cortisone for 3 months now and at last I am starting to see my healthy eating paying off. While on cortisone, I ate heathy but could see no positive results. So hang in there and you will see the weight fall off after a few months provided you eat healthy (low fat) and do a bit of exercise. dont give up hope. Reply to M Posted by: Savanna | 2006/01/13 Ek is al 6 jaar op kortisoon vir Rheumatoid arthritus en ek het BAIE gewig opgetel. Ek het October 2005 102kg's geweeg en ek was moedeloos en depressed. Ek het Dr Cohen's Diet begin op die 24ste Oct 2005 en ek is baie bly om te sê dat ek al 18kg's verloor het!! Ek moet nog 20kg's verloor voor ek by my doel gewig kom en dit is sonder enige oefening of enige iets. Dis net reg eet. Ja dit is moelik maar EK is die moeite werd. Almal het vir my gesê ek sal nie gewig verloor terwyl ek kortisoon gebruik nie en kyk nou! :) Reply to Savanna Posted by: X Rated | 2006/01/12 Volgens my ...... ja dit neem langer as 2 maande ...... let net op wat jy eet omrede ...... as 'n mens kortisone gebruik ..... eet 'n mens oor die algemeen meer.
