Hello Everyone!

New to this board, glad I found it!!!

I recently had my gallbladder removed, does anyone have any ideas of what you can or cannot eat? I know each one of us is different and we react to things differently. I am just wondering what works for you and what does not.

I have been holding back on fatty food and trying to eat more veggies and fruit...what works?

Thanks

Kristen

Hi Krisy - I found that I had to eat a diet low in fat for quite a while. I also found that I did better avoiding processed foods (ie. things that come in a package, box, from the deli or pre-made meals from the freezer section).


I also avoided (and still avoid) saturated fats so I have to make sure that I consume enough protein from other sources.


Wishing you all the best,


Jo

Hi Kristen, I just had mine out two days ago so I will be finding out. Right now I am trying to stay on the low fat diet I have been on for soo long because of the gb pain.

Have you had any problems since surgery?
