I am 5 months post op sleeve and 2 weeks post op Gall bladder removal. Just wondering if anyone who had wls and Gall bladder surgery takes any enzymes or made any major changes to diet due to not having a gall bladder anymore. I like to be more proactive than reactive.

Nope haven’t changed a thing. I had sleeve surgery 27 months ago & my gall removed three months ago.

You’ll already be keeping your fat intake low & that’s really all you need to do. They often recommend eating smaller meals more frequently but you’re likely doing that too.

The thing to be aware of is that without a gall bladder, bile is released continuously into your digestive system now. Consequently you may experience some diarrhoea. It usually only lasts a couple of weeks but can be a couple of months. I still have it about once every 10 or so days. But it’s a little different. I get more like a dull pain in my lower abdomen versus a crampy feeling as a warning. My sister-in-law says she gets a diarrhoea attack about once a month since hers was removed 18months ago. She thinks it’s because the bile builds up & her body says enough.

Had mine out about 20 years ago. Zero issues. I eat a lot of dietary fiber.

Thank You both for your responses. I am hoping things go smoothly for me as they did for both of you. I worry because I work in home health and spend my day either in the car or in patient’s homes. Bathroom issues would be a big problem for me.
