    I gained 8 lbs after using prednisone for an Eczema breakout. Of which I never had eczema before. Very frustrating. I was eating everything. I’m almost off it now, so I’m hoping I can get back to 145lbs by New years. And more before summer.

    Hi, Rhonda. This program is quite low in carbohydrates and high in protein and good fats, which should help you here. Physical activity is also very important when dealing with prednisone – if you would like guidance with this, please repost here, and I would be happy to help.

    I have gained 20 lbs. from Gabapentin 300 ml and tamazepam for insomnia & pain. I now try to take it once a week in order to get some sleep. I do not take it for seizures.

    Hi, stamminger36. Did you take it more frequently than once per week in the past?
