  • Gallbladder disease + Atkins

    Does anyone know if the fact that I have had my gallbladder out will affect this diet in any way?? Will it make it harder to lose weight? Easier? Any other ill effects or bonuses?

    Thanks in advance!

    Re: Gallbladder disease + Atkins

    My low-fat diet brought on my GB disease. I never felt the surgery affected me in any way. Nothing I eat bothers me and my weight-loss has been more influenced by my menopausal hormone fluctuations. I know that some people have issues, but it seems that most don't. Take it as it comes. You'll do fine!

      I had mine out and haven't had any problems following Atkins. Some people report bathroom issues after eating a lot of fat, but I've never had that.

          I had my gallbladder removed when I was 24 ... that was um.. a few years ago now!!!

          I have never had any trouble from it at all so i dont think you need to worry too much about it. Goodluck!
