Default Yet Another Steroids Question

Hello!

My doctor has prescribed a MASSIVE dose of steroids for me beginning the 13th of January - 80 mg of prednisone a day for two weeks; very gradual weaning off after that. I have had steroids in the past and am not looking forward to many of the side effects - the last time I did this I managed to gain about 50 pounds!! Does anyone have any suggestions about what I can do to mitigate some of the horribleness of this?? Help in advance, please!

Thanks
