Hi everyone. Has anyone here experienced post-prednisolone weight loss? I had been on prednisolone for nearly 3 years because of health issue, a month after I stopped, I started to lose weight effortlessly. I have lost 10kgs as of today and I was wondering if this is normal. My doctor said, my body is no longer retaining water. But 10kgs of water retained is a little bit too much right?
A little bit of history, I weigh 52kg when actively working out. Gained only 1 kg after a year taking prednisolone. Had a surgery in 2018, increased prenisolone intake after the surgery and gained 4-5kgs. I was 57-58 kg at peak, stopped strength training because no heavy workout after surgery said my doctor. I had to almost not eat anything to maintain my weight at 57kg, and ran 10k nearly everyday.
Now I weigh 46kg (very petite, so I am not underweight) and I don't think I am losing any more weight. Was your prednisolone weight loss like this? Or do I have to worry. Coz someone said to me, that's a lot of weight loss, could be a sign of cancer.
