What Might Be The Reason For Putting On Weight After The Gall Bladder Removal Surgery?

I had my gall bladder removed in January and ever since I am putting weight back on. I lost a little over 50 pounds prior to the surgery. Not because of my gallbladder though. I have gained around 12 pounds since the surgery and I don t know what to do about it.
