Dx in April 2004. Currently 22. Started with pentasa, relapse in 2007 where I was put on Remicade, then started Humira in the Summer of 2009 for convenience. No relapse since 2007. I am having trouble losing weight and am wondering if any one else experiences this while having been on Remicade and Humira. I'm 148 lbs and only 5'3'' and would like to be around 130-133lbs.

Hi JDeck and welcome! I have not taken Remicade and Humira, so I don't have any advice. However, you may want to check out the Remicade & Humira sub-forums under treatment.
Besides possibly causing the weight gain, have you been doing well on Humira? I hope you are feeling well!
