Why Am I Gaining Weight After Gall Bladder Removal?

Hi, I am 30 years old, had my gall bladder removed 2 years ago prior to that lost 26kg eating right and exercising. (My weight was 100kg)Since removal I cant lose a thing, have gained 4kg in 3 months still eating right and exercising. I was prescribed duromine by my doctor twice which took off 2-3 kgs but it always came right back on. I am wondering if my liver could be the cause of my problem, I gain weight around the stomach. I am really depressed over the gain and nothing I do works

the weight gain is likely not related to your gall bladder surgery. you may want to derive a new exercise regiment & discuss strategies of weight loss via nutrition with your doctor.

Hi, Welcome to Health care magic forum.
It appears that that there is change in the lipid metabolism,after the surgery. Now you may have to give some more activity in burning the fats .
Minimize the sleeping time, and avoid sleeping day time.
Avoid taking fats,calories,and oily foods.
Take more of green leafy vegetables,pulses, sprouts,and protein rich foods.
Wishing for a quick and complete recovery. Thank you.
