A thread for Maintainers to share our daily menus!

(This thread is a spin-off from another thread I started that was open to all people at different stages. Meant to start this one specifically for Maintainers a while back, but am just now getting around to it )

Same format applies: To help keep things in perspective for everyone, let's try to note our height & weight (or BMI), gender, weight-status & how far out we are post-op (unless this is already stated in your side profile )

Post as little or as much info as you want. If you track macros, feel free to share your Protein, fat, & carb details...if all you feel like saying is you had a really yummy taco, that's cool too.

Do you have company?

Nope

I can hang with you for a bit and we can chat!

I am having an insomniac moment anyways...

Lol I just dont understand they did bloods an ultrasound and ct scan but nobody told me anything and when I ask they say the dr will come soon

Did they check you in (like are you in a bed) or are you in the waiting room?

Waiting sucks. But waiting in a waiting room is like the 7th circle of hell.

Kind of a bed but they put me in pediatric so the "bed" is too short

Well you are short like me so it shouldn't be too bad, LOL. One of the (very) few benefits of being short, I guess. That and the extra leg room we get on airplanes.

Do you have access to the personal messenger on here? I sent you a message...prolly better to chat there than create pages and pages on this thread, lol.

Hi Chayarg - I may have missed whether this was asked or not, but do you still have your gallbladder?

I’m sorry you are going through this pain and waiting game. I’ve been there, it sucks.

Mine caused a similar series of attacks before we broke up for good. It may not be the cause of your issue, but I don’t trust gallbladders anymore after mine caused me such pain, heartache, and vomiting.

Before, but it was after I’d lost a lot of weight (I just unfortunately gained it back that time).

Checking in. @chayarg I'm hoping you are getting some sleep right now and that they've been in to see you!! ((hugs)) So sorry you are alone! Wish we were there!

@ms.sss what a great friend to hang with her last night!!!

@AngieBear Glad you got that gb out! And this time you are not gonna gain the weight back!!!

Hugs and prayers all around! Off to the doc for my two year appt. 129.4lbs this morning. Gosh, I love poopin'.

Didn't get a chance to go grocery shopping yesterday...

You know how we say sugar begets sugar, and when you eat more, it becomes easier to eat more? It works the other way too. When I eat less, it becomes easier to continue to eat less. Its been like a day and my late night sugar cravings were nowhere to be found last night.

However. Sub-1000 cals is NOT a level I want to be at for long, so I reeeeeeally need to go grocery shopping today.
