Hello, I'm brand new here. I saw you're post and thought I'd chime in.
I had chronic uc for about 5 years till I ended up having the surgery. I have now had a j-pouch for 3 years. I too was in good shape and worked out a lot before I got to sick. I weighed about 180 at 5' 10". With all the prednisone I was on I got really bloded and weighed almost 200 before my surgery. After my first surgery with the illiostomy I dropped down to about 155 lbs within a month. It really sucked!! I was so weak. I struggled going up stairs even! After I had my pouch surgery it took awhile, maybe a month or so I started putting some weight. I jugged those premade protein shakes like crazy and took fiber powder along with Imodium to help slow it down. A few m
