Hallo , i need some advice since i were diagnosed i picked up 25 kg most if it comes from the pred. I do not eat unhealthy and will be starting yoga again. My stomach does swells alot and looks as if pregnant. I just want to loose that 25kg and look the way i did i were 70 kg then, i dont know what diets will be best i thought maybe the poleo soup diet? Any advice?

Good luck with the dieting, but it seems to me you can be slim and still have a bloated tum unfortunately. I'm 54 kilos, fairly skinny, but I still have a huge tum from the pred (or is it just this disease causes bloating in the stomach area?)!

I have the total opposite problem of yours, and I tell you it's nothing easy to gain weight with symptoms like mine.
How's your diet going? I know it's hard to stick to a certain kind of meals, so I'd just recommend eating healthy and doing tons of exercise. I hope everything is working well with you.

you might want to look at FODMAPS for the bloating, and add this to paleo and see what happens.
Pred will cause weight gain so you might want to aim to reduce the need for it by eating a paleo diet that nourishes your microbiome

I'd highly recommend taking this med called Verdo (ask your GI about it), it worked like magic for me. I can't believe that I'm not bloated anymore. It consists of peppermint oil, anise oil, ginger oil and thyme oil; all natural and very effective. Since I have GERD, I'm taking it with Dexlansoprazole, so acid reflux won't bother me.
I hope that your problem gets sorted soon.
