I had my gallbladder removed in August 1997. In December 1998 I discoverred Atkins while doing some research on a medical condition I have (Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome) and in 10 months lost 45 pounds with no problems whatsoever.

The *only* problem I had with the diet was when I went off of it I had a heck of a time getting back on it.

Hope this helps.
