That’s the first hit on google. I’m not going to look up any more but assuming if JH has it listed then it’s been studied to some degree. But feel free to google studies :) Hope this helps

Btw this doesn’t mean everyone that fasts will gets stones nor that everyone that gets stones has a history of fasting. It is merely a risk factor

I thought this was common knowledge in the medical community, that stagnation in the gallbladder increases the chance for sludge and stones. But I’d have to look to see if there’s actually studies supporting this

Funny that I saw this post. I came here to see if anyone saw the recent board changes and saw this post. Not only can fasting be an issue for stone production with your gallbladder, but you can actually produce stones after you’ve had it out and that can be more likely with fasting, though that doesn’t mean you absolutely…

Thank you! Yeah I’ve been down that road too. Unfortunately. I’ve looked into a gym/group fitness setting. If I’m paying them, they won’t quit lol

Yes and no. I used to have very small waist and huge hips and thighs in my early 20s prebabies. I’m in my late 30s and 4 kids later and my waist is not so tiny. It’s much thicker as is my tummy. I think that’s more to do with aging for me though. But my loose skin doesn’t help! Also my butt use to be flat and now it’s not,…

Thank you all for the replies. I think terytha you said exactly what I need, someone to back me up right now and it not him. I want it to be. Because he really is my rock with everything else, but this is something I’ll have to go else here for support. Also I like the idea of its HIS food and not mine to eat. Hard to do,…

FWIW, I agree with you.

Hi! I'm a mom of 4. Three boys ages 8,5 & 2. And a girl that just turned 1. I gained and lost about 60 pounds with each baby but I've always been overweight. I'm just about at my pre-pregnancy weight now (lost nearly 50 pounds this past year) but now I want to lose the last 25 so I can be at a healthy weight. I'm a runner,…

Another runner here. Up and down weight too. My really big gains have been during my 4 pregnancies over the past 9 years. Each time a struggle to lose and get back to a weight where I can run comfortably. I eat healthy but still struggle each time to lose the last 25 lbs and was only successful once when I was running like…

You can do this!!

I'm sorry you had that kind of self realization moment, and that it wasn't a positive one. :( I don't think you meant it to be about the other lady (so not judging) but more about where you are versus where you want to be. It's tough when you have young kids because suddenly your "you" time is cut way down and you must…

First, congratulations!! :) You are still establishing your supply so no cutting calories! Don't do low carb either. Just focus on getting your calories from nutritious, whole foods. Oatmeal (steel cut or old fashion) are great, some moms find they help your supply. Protein and plenty of healthy fats like avocados and…
