I had my gallbladder removed about four years ago and just started the Atkins diet (as of 10 days ago). I was told before leaving the hospital, when my gallbladder was removed, that a low-fat diet was the way I should eat for the rest of my life due to the inhibited production of gall (which digests fat). I have lost 6 pounds since being in the induction phase...but I was wondering if a low-fat version of the Atkins diet is the way to go if one does not have a gallbladder? Anyone know about this? Your advice is much appreciated! I don't want to mess up my liver or anything else by eating a high fat diet considering my situation.
