Anyone had gallbladder surgery?
Just wondering if anyone has had their gallbladder out (had mine out this year, March). Because, I am not getting constipation, I am getting the opposite, and I am wondering if it might be because of that?....

Re: Anyone had gallbladder surgery?
That can also be a symptom of Induction Flu, and/or just a reflection of your body getting used to this new mixture of foods that you have introduced. It should settle down soon. Make sure you're getting enough fiber. -

THe first week or two you will NOT be constipated. You will probably have loose bowels.
After that, the constipation can set in.

Re: Anyone had gallbladder surgery?
I had mine out in '03. I had the opposite problem too but the more I stuck with this WOL it returned to normal. I didn't even have constipation problems. It's going to get better...just keep on keepin' on!

Re: Anyone had gallbladder surgery?
I've had the surgery years ago. My doctor told me that I would notice loose bowels if I ate greasy foods. If I remember correctly, he said that the gall bladder helped in digestion, especially with greasy foods. I'm starting day four of Induction and haven't had any problems either way.
