I started on 20mg pred almost 3 years ago. I am a 70 year old fit male and wanted to stay that way. What worked for me, is cutting out all my candy and soda and things with refined sugar. I also keep up with my running and other exercises. Eat a lot of salads and fruit. Actually have lost a little weight and only had "moon face" for a short time. Was down to 2mg, but had minor flare and had to go up to 12mg. Now down to 4mg again with minor issues. I really think diet is really important for not gaining weight.

Hi Ingo! Thank you for your comment...sounds like you are really taking care of your body...and running too?? That is amazing...keep it up! I'm hoping once I get definitively dx and start the steroids I will feel well enough to get back on the exercise routine...it's so hard...
