Struggles with Weight Loss

October 5th, 2008

Finding the best way to lose weight is difficult. Most people begin with diet and exercise which brings them some success in losing weight. My friend Casey struggled to lose weight for years. She turned to Diet Pills to get off the rest of her weight. She has tried all different diets to help her lose weight. She would get discouraged very quickly. This didn’t help her self esteem. She was depressed a lot because she couldn’t reach her goal for weight loss. Casey had struggled with being over weight since she was a little girl. In her teens she was called the fat girl in class. She faced a lot of rejection from people around her. When she kept her weight off she felt better about herself. She was able to be social with her peers and didn’t feel like she needed to hide from others. The drug Acomplia was the first diet drug she tried. She was able to keep the weight off which helped her feel better about herself. Casey talked to her doctor before trying a diet drug. Casey’s mother had taken Reductil for her weight loss struggles. Casey’s mother had been her greatest cheer leader. I tried to be supportive of Casey, but it was not easy for me. I hadn’t struggled with my weight until Lupus. Having Lupus I’ve had to take medication just to keep my symptoms under control. The prednisone has helped me gain the most weight. Now I can understand her struggle with losing weight and keeping the weight off. Lupus has its way of giving you many ups and downs in life. In life we all have our own struggles. Struggles are just a part of life.
