Is there a clear answer?
Hello All,
Shannonp- after 4 weeks of Induction I have lost only 1lb. but have also lost 3.5" inches!
I am still not sure? The Gallbladder hold excess bile, and when bile (a digestive fluid) is required the gallbladder releases it. During a very fatty meal extra bile may be required and released.
If someone doesn't have their Gallbladder, then it is generally suggested that each person learns their own personal tolerance level for fat intake and lives within that zone.
So, I really don't know if my metabolism is slowed down because it is working on disolving the fat content I consume and the fat I am burning through the process of lipolysis? If I don't have extra bile released (from the gallbladder) to digest and breakdown the fats, perhaps the whole weightloss process is slower.
Perhaps, It is a Medical Question?
I truely hope you have successfull weightloss!
