Has anyone had there gall bladder removed if so can you answer a few questions for me thanks?

Hi! I had it done the traditional method about 15 years ago and I did put on weight...alot of weight! I don't know if the surgery had anything to do with the weight gain, but I had stomach stapling/byp surgery about 2 years prior to getting gall stones and terrible attacks until they finally gave me an ultrasound and determined I had stones. I never avoided fatty foods....never even heard that I had to avoid them...maybe that's my problem? Ha! You'll be back to normal in probably a couple weeks, I was back to work in 4 weeks and I was cut open. I hope you are feeling better!
