Complete Hysterectomy, severe asthma,steroid use and weight gain

I had a complete hysterectomy done in Aug 2010. I think I suffered in the months following the surgery more that I did from what caused me to have the surgery in the first place. I was in so much pain and such long term heavy bleeding that I did not even think about a second opinion.From this experience I have learned that as women we need to ask questions and speak up for ourselves! I didn't ask all the pertinent questions about after the surgery. If I had all the answers, I would have never had that surgery done. I would deal with the bleeding. I have gained so much weight especially in my mid section it is disgusting!What makes it worse is that I have chronic, severe asthma and I basically live on Prednisone. It is heartbreaking and very discouraging! I thought I finally had the asthma under control and was off of the steroids.Well the joke was on me because in one week of being back on them, I have the moon face, I can see all at the bridge of my nose is so swollen it looks as if I was in a fight. I got on the scale today and couldn't stop crying. It took me 6 1/2 weeks to lose 5 lbs and in two days I gained it all back. I eat very healthy! I do a lot of juices (raw foods) in the vitamix, I cook in very healthy ways, I drink mainly water, other drinks are herbal teas, I use soy and almond milks which are non dairy. I use agave nectar in place of sugar. I use nothing white or refined. Yet this is so incredibly hard. I am at my wit's end here. I hate the way I look, I have nothing that fits or looks right and the worse is the way people stare at you because the assumption is always that because you are overweight you must obviously be an over eater. Most articles or blogs or even tv shows about weight loss all talk about weight loss as simple as cut your portions and move. As I stated above there are many other causes to weight gain that no one addresses.
