Need help I had gall bladder surgery and I seem to gain weight in my stomach area even though I’m eating the same diet then before. Very discouraged - need suggestions to take the weight off

    How long ago was the surgery? It takes a while for the system to get back to normal - at least that was my experience.

    How long ago was it? If it was recent then water weight, inflammation, still air from surgery (they pump up your stomach with air so the surgeon can see what's happening). Are you tracking your food intake? Not having a gallbladder has no influence on the amount of calories you take up. If anything, eating too much fat might mean it doesn't get digested and flies out the other end, hence having less calories.
