I had my gallbladder taken out 3/15/12. While I will admit the first few days were a battle, I have never felt better. I feel the same as I did before pre-surgery. I can't eat greasy foods on cheat days like I used to, but who cares? I am back to my old self. To ward off any nausea I had at the beginning, however, I would chew a piece of ginger. The second day after surgery, I walked for 20 minutes to pass gas and to start having bowel movements (gas passed two days post-suregry , bowel movements came 4 days post-suregry). Also, not saying it made a difference, I was physically active pre-suregry. I worked out 5-6 days a week. I didn't work out for two weeks after surgery, of course, but have restarted to workout again. People's post surgery outcomes are going to be different. There will always be a small percentage who bounce back completely from surgery. I am grateful for my surgery.
