I had gall bladder surgery in 1991. I weighed between 105 and 110 my entire life - I am 5'2'' female and had five children. I never had a weight problem ever in my life.
Once the surgery was over and things settled down (approx. 6 weeks) the weight gain began. I gained 30 lbs in 1 year and no matter how hard I try with diet or exercise - and believe me, I do try - the extra weight won't budge. I am 60 yrs. old now and still active and I eat low carb and healthy with lost of veggies and fruits - I do not drink soda.
I have always eaten a healthy diet and am not a carboholic and rarely if ever eat sweets. I have maintained my present weight for 20 years - and am NOT happy at my present weight even though most people don't think I am 'THAT' heavy - but to me - I AM HEAVY.
Don't believe ANYONE who tells you there will NOT be weight gain after gall bladder surgery. I don't know anyone who has had this surgery who has not or is not battling their weight and most without success. :0(
