I was wondering how many of you here don’t fit the fat, female,
fourty profile. I was actually shocked the first time I read that!
I’m 38, female, been having attacks since my early 20’s and weight
115 soaking wet!
But I did read somewhere that dieting and fasting can bring on
gallstones. There’s where I fit in….I was diagnosed anorexic at
the age of 17. I still have food issues, but EAT now….ALOT.
Problem is, my body just resonds when I don’t eat….by saying, “No
food, cool. I’ll make you think you’re never hungry!” And right now,
not being able to eat is putting my body in that mode….and I hate
it! Just worries me a bit.
Well, I guess I just wanted to chit chat! Thanks for listening and
hope everyone had a nice, attack-free weekend!

Edie,
I also read that on several medical sites. I have been a little
concerned that changing my diet rather suddenly to avoid fatty foods could
actually create more stones! I’m trying to balance that possibility by
eating the “good fats” such as avocado. Just an idea.
It is the loss of one’s own fat during dieting that causes the gallstones and if
you Yo-Yo diet, it increases the accumulation dramatically.
