I had mine out a few years ago. It was also after a round of HCG. HMMM. Mine was all sludge. Gallbladder surgery was a breeze, and I felt better instantly. Before they took it out, I was a vomit machine. Glad it is gone!

Is there info on why this happens or what (if any) proactive steps can be taken to minimize the risk?

HCG is a hormone that is injecTed into your stomach,this along with a very low calorie diet helps you lose weight pretty fast,but we are talking 500 calorie diet onlu 4 Oz of Protein per day and a very strict select foods you are allowed to eat. My surgeon just told us at our support group

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
