My sentiments exactly!
I also needed a lot of help and encouragement to taper off prednisone before I reduced my weight, my fatigue lessened, my energy level increased and I felt better.

Hello PMR-pals ! @dadcue @johnbishop @linda7 I gained ~8 lbs during my year of PMR. Size 4 clothing has been donated away ! I retired in Dec 2023 and now have the time to spend at JCC pool doing water exercises and I started swim lessons ! Whoa - adding that to my routine is a calorie burner and a core-work out. During the last 5 months of tapering off of Prednisone to 0.5mg/day , I am really tired. I have removed most snazzy cocktails that my husband is SO good at preparing before dinner or else I would be asleep at 7:30pm. Happy to say I have lost 6 pounds !
