Angelique, a lot of that weight is bloat from those drugs. Fear not! You will see the scale start to go down when you come off of them. Steriods just wreak havoc with your body.

The best thing to do is just eat healthy, drink water and REST. Your back needs you to do that right now. When the doc releases you back to normal activity, you'll be fine.

It's maddening, I know. Just watched a dear friend go through this (bulging discs et al.) and I was one of his "venting boards" so, I do empathize. If it makes you feel any better, the weight gain he had has all come off again.
