I had my gallbladder removed at the end of May of this year. At this point, I am having the same symptoms as some of the folks who have written here. I noticed the symptoms seem to change since I got home from the hospital. At this point, the weight gain has been the biggest shock and the most frustrating. Your response was the most informative that I have read anymore. Thank you...

I lost weight also at first because of recovering from surgery. Now 5 months later I am gaining weight & having gas ect. If it has only been 1& 1/2 wks from your surgery you can not judge & are in for a big surprise!

I had my gall bladder out in 2005. Since then, I have gained about 60 lbs and have developed IBS. I cannot eat anything spicy, red, greasy or be overly indulgent. I have to eat small meals that are healthy. If I want McDonalds, I have to be prepared to pay for it with the pain and diarrhea. It is NOT a picnic. It is horrible. The weight gain has caused me to suffer from joint pain, high blood pressure and asthma. However, I can offer this one piece of good news. I am seeing a certified dietician and am on a track that has curbed the pain of the IBS. I have lost 7 lbs of body fat, though I have not lost any actual weight. I can say I am healthier now than I have been in a long time. The weight will come off, it will just be a long road. So for those who say they are not experiencing anything after GB surgery, I think you are not telling the whole story. You WILL see your body do many things you have not seen before. You WILL experience VERY soft stools afterward. You will feel even more bloated and gassy within an hour of eating, especially if the food was greasy or junk. I know of no one who has not experienced this. Every female in my family has had their gall bladders removed and we all experience the exactly same issues. So when we get together, we make sure our dishes are healthy and light, not heavy. Otherwise, we will NOT be enjoying life afterward.

My Doctor keeps pushing the idea of my Gb taken out. I wish alternatives could be offered . It is obvious that we need the Gb and Doctors I am sorry to say tend to Lie claiming there will be no issues after. I am very image concious always was I dont want to put on weight. I alter my own clothes and it took years to get a warbrobe I like at my side now. I am a singer too. The Stones should be removed not the GB as standard.Then monitored ad advised how to keep stones away. I know that being under weight as in my case or over weight can cause Stones. Also having hight cholesteral. Why Do Doctors push lies rather than develpe proper remdies. I already have IBS and really fear any worse symptoms.

There is something also called a Galballder flush which it said can cause stones to be pushed out. I tried this dont think it worked will try again.

My father was being pushed by his doctor to have gb removed. He was reluctant to say the least. The doctor was actually harassing him with constant phone calls and at some stage got a bit abusive. Then I told my father to try the olive oil/lemon juice procedure that is doing the rounds on the internet - after all what had he to lose? Guess what? It worked to a large degree - he ended up losing the bigger of the two stones he had, and the smaller one was not big enough to cause any attacks. A year later, he went to see the same doctor who looked at the ultrasound scans and decreed that my father must have change his diet. Well, my father thought "what a bastard, not telling me in the first place that I could alleviate the condition by changing the diet but pushing for a surgery". Least to say, he never went back to this doctor...

I have not gained weight after my gall bladder was taken out. In fact I feel amazing but I am worried if I am getting the nutrients I need. I also love what most people call fat milk, vitamin D Milk. I drink it daily and don't seem to have any problems. But I keep seeing in here NOT to drink it. Just want to stay healthy. Thank You so much for your input, I was beginning to feel like I was going to end up being a 300 pound women!

Amazon sells Gall Bladder Formula works fast and amazing I carry it with me always. If you eat a fattier meal take three before you eat, most of the time one in the morning keeps me normal. Try it $30 but anything at this point is worth a try. No more embarrassing... well you know. Good luck.
