      I have you been on the 10mg of prednisone for only 3 days now do you think it's the night snacking because they said I also have a fatty liver I completely changed my diet and basically the only snack that I eat are graham crackers but otherwise I eat a lot of fruit veggie cheese no milk no potatoes no rice I mean I completely change my diet and I've gotten used to it so it's pretty good eating so I know in the past on the prednisone I was very hungry all the time so I've only been on it for 2 days but I'm trying to take it at night so maybe I'll just go to sleep and won't worry about it and then with the exercise and hopefully that'll help but I fought so hard to lose all the weight from the doctor saying I had a fatty liver I just don't want to go there regardless too if it's water weight or what mainly I want to continue living so I'm willing to do it it takes as well

      I would say for you to continue doing what you are doing and you should be just fine. I would recommend for you to eliminate all “Gluten” and grains from your diet.  I would add that I have totally changed my diet. I have adopted some of the Paleo diet and everything is changing for me. I feel so much better and my system moves better.

      So can you tell me what the deal is with not eating the grains because I'm on the so-called Nash diet and oatmeal is like the only breakfast that I can eat besides egg whites so what would be my other option I don't eat the rice or the pastas or anything like that so could you tell me why you feel like not even the grains it's a good thing because my oatmeal is like my go to breakfast
