I read all the time that PSC causes weight loss and of ALL > the symptoms I have, this is not one of them. > > Do others have problems with NOT loosing weight? ===================== I'm right with you on this, !! I've struggled with my weight ever since I was in my teens. However, about a year ago I found a program that's fantastic!!! SparkPeople! I've been on there for almost a year now and have dropped 53 pounds. This program is absolutely free and has an immense quantity of resources -- articles to read, a food tracker, and literally thousands of support groups. I am Team Leader for the IBD Support Team as well as co-leader for the Need to Lose 200+ Team. Go take a look at: http://www.sparkpeople.com/ Tell them Cantata sent you! I hope to see you there soon!

Guest guest Posted October 17, 2007 Report Share Posted October 17, 2007 Thanks Carolyn! I have been doing weight watchers because everyone swears by it. I'm totally strict with my points but nothing. Well I lost 30 pounds after they were born but my stomach, something, I dunno, I started feeling crummy and gained back 21 pounds in less than 3 weeks! Since then I've not been able to loose anything. I will hunt you down there though, lol. Thanks again! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 18, 2007 Report Share Posted October 18, 2007 - you may want to check with your doctor and/or other more experienced people here and make sure you're not getting " ascites " - (sp?) it sounds kind of like it might be fluid retention and i THINK - from what i've read of other posts - that a ton of fluid retention, right in your belly, is actually a fairly common PSC symptom, and something the doctors can do something about. Does that sound right/wrong to anyone else? tx, Nina in Philly > > Thanks Carolyn! I have been doing weight watchers because everyone > swears by it. I'm totally strict with my points but nothing.
