I just had my gall bladder removed 5 days ago, after my first gall bladder attack and discovery of inflammation and gall stones. My surgeon put me on a low fat diet while in the hospital and recommended that I stay on the low fat diet for at least the first week after I am released from the hospital.
I specifically asked about beef, as I have been told by many that they can no longer eat beef after gall bladder removal. I was told I should be able to eat beef, but not for the first week. I was also told that I can enjoy my shrimp, but as butter is the main ingredient in shrimp scampi, dining at Red Lobster is out for a while.
As for those who have issues with eating at Subway after this surgery, they are probably not staying within the guidelines of a low fat diet, when making their sandwich choice. There are 4 sandwiches that come to mind immediately that should be avoided because of the fat grams. Stay away from the Meatball Marinara, the Cold Cut Combo, the Tuna and the Seafood Sensation. Those 4 are higher in fat grams than other choices available. There are now 8 sandwiches that have under six grams of fat, when you choose a six-inch portion, and avoid the cheese, mayonnaise, olives and olive oil.
Also, there are many different flavors of Baked Lays that have been offered at Subway for quite some time. So a person can have a decent lunch or dinner there, and should not have any complications from eating, if they watch the fat grams.
All QSRs (Quick Service Restaurants) should have a nutritional guide available either online, or at the location to assist people with making their dining choices.
I didn't eat too much from the burger places prior to my surgery and I don't plan on doing that now.
The most difficult thing for me to either cut back on, or give up, will be cheese. However, a month ago, I listened to a guest host on Rush Limbaugh explain why the French are not as overweight as we are. When you combine fruit and cheese, the two interact differently and fewer calories are stored as body fat. So the French with their wine and cheese, are actually on to something healthy. That fruit plate with cottage cheese isn't looking quite so bad any more, and it satisfies my cravings for cheese.
I know my answer is lengthy, but I am trying to be informed, and help inform others who are traveling down the same road that I am.

an in depth relative of mine had her gall bladder bumped off many years in the past and she or he's able to consume any ingredients without problem. The liver will nonetheless produce the bile mandatory for digestion of fat. try somewhat of each and every thing i'm confident there will be no problem. Kidney stones are frequently brought about by heredity aspects, what you consume or drink has little or no to do with the formation of kidney stones.

My advice is avoid greasy food.I had mine out and was told to stay away from things like Mc Donalds,Pizza. I was also told that Subway Subs would give me problems but I have no problem eatiing those.Some people I know have trouble eatting grilled foods after.My advice is to try different foods to see what will agree with you and what won't. Each person is different.

I had my gallbladder removed in may,some people adjust quite well to a normal diet but others like me have to avoid high fats in foods(the gallbladder produces bile and such to aid in fat digestion) as this causes very very loose stools and abdominal pain similar to irritable bowel syndrome.

Since I had mine taken out, i have had to stay away from things with skins on them such as onions and bell peppers and such. They just dont like me anymore. Avoid foods high in fats.

I think you can eat normally now. Before the removal you should avoid fats, but not now.
