Having gall bladder removed.

Have stones. Ultrasound confirmed.
Question. Can I eat this immediately after the removal.?
I have a very healthy bland low fat, low carb diet. I eat 7 to 8 small meals a day. Quite a bit of lean baked chicken, cauliflower and, broccoli. I eat almost the same thing everyday. Have been for 5+ years. incredibly disciplined.
Lost 83 pounds to date. So how was it for you?

It’s an adjustment. Your body does adapt.. stay close to a restroom after eating for awhile. Good luck.

Never heard of a low fat, low carb diet. Maybe that is giving you issues?

The gall bladder?

I've never had my gallbladder removed so can't speak from experience, but here's an article I found that may be helpful.

Most people don’t experience digestive problems after gallbladder removal, according to the Mayo Clinic. But if you do, you may need to avoid certain foods.
Depending on your body’s ability to adapt, you may only need to modify your diet for a short period, or you may need to make lasting changes.

Dietary Adjustments After Gallbladder Surgery
It's important to carefully follow your doctor's instructions about your diet after gallbladder surgery.
If you're hospitalized, your medical team will help you transition from a liquid to a solid diet almost immediately after your gallbladder surgery.
quote:
If you're recovering at home, you'll need to introduce foods slowly and consume mainly clear liquids, broth, and gelatin at first.
As you start feeling better, you can slowly introduce solid foods back into your diet. But you may need to avoid certain foods for a while if you experience bloating, diarrhea, and gas during this time.
Most people can return to a normal diet within a month of having gallbladder surgery.
quote:
Foods to Avoid
quote:
Fried foods, like french fries and potato chips
High-fat meats, such as bacon, bologna, sausage, ground beef, and ribs
High-fat dairy products, such as butter, cheese, ice cream, cream, whole milk, and sour cream
Pizza
Foods made with lard or butter
Creamy soups or sauces
Meat gravies
Chocolate
Oils, especially palm and coconut oil
Skin of chicken or turkey
quote:
Certain high-fiber and gas-producing foods can also cause discomfort after gallbladder surgery, so you may want to introduce them slowly back into your diet.
These foods include:
Whole-grain breads and cereals
Nuts
Seeds
Legumes
Brussels sprouts
Broccoli
Cauliflower
Cabbage
quote:
You may benefit from including more soluble fiber in your diet, since it can help regulate bowel movements, according to the Mayo Clinic. Good sources of soluble fiber include oats and barley.
It’s a good idea to avoid larger meals, since your body can no longer store as much bile as before. Smaller, more frequent meals may be easier to digest.
quote:
Spicy foods may also cause digestive upset for a time after gallbladder removal.
To figure out what foods, if any, are causing problems after your surgery, you may want to consider keeping a food journal.
In this journal, you can record when you add foods back into your diet, as well as any digestive symptoms you’re experiencing — and possibly make a connection between the two.
If you need help developing a diet plan after your surgery, ask your doctor to refer you to a registered dietitian.

Stay away from fatty, oily foods. Some people go back to normal, after a while of the runs. I haven’t, and I cannot eat beef or any fatty foods.
Good luck! Other than some random runs, I feel much better since mine was removed in 2017

Your body is going to take a bit to adapt and you’re never going to be able to handle fat the same way but I’m 2 years removed from getting mine removed at the ER and I don’t have any dietary issues. Only thing I’ve really changed is going for fat free milk.

Congrats on losing another 2-3 when they take out the gall bladder.
