Gal Bladder trouble
I have lost a total of 107 pounds and still could lose about 20 more if I would get on the ball and excersise more. My continuing problem is that I had my gal bladder removed 4 years ago so with my WLS 2 years ago the 2 together cause some discomfort. I have problems with diarrhea about 2-3 days a week. The days that are worse are the ones that I have had acidic foods the day before; like tomatoes or oranges. The thing is that tomatoes are my favorite food and I love orange juice and grapefruit juice. The diarrhea is not uncomfortable or painful just inconvienent. I have also had some trouble with a spastic colon and sometimes I don't have alot of warning that I need to go to the bathroom, which makes it hard on days I am traveling. I am lucky that my weight loss puts me at a weight that I look fine just a little pudgy. I lost about 75% of my obesity and the other 25% is about 20 pounds and I have kept 100 pounds off since 11-02 and the other 7 pounds came off last fall. Good luck to all. Diane J.
