How long for recovery from emergency gallbladder surgery?

I am 5 months post-op, lost 60 lbs and from out of no where ended up in the ER last week with severe pain. They removed my gallbladder. It has now been 4 days since surgery and I am very frustrated at the lack of recovery. I feel almost as bad as I did the day of, and I am eating even worse. Nothing tastes good, and when I force something down, it makes me sick to my stomach! I've tried liquid & bland foods and its all the same. I have pain, but mostly I am just wipped out. I have been searching this site to see how long it takes to get back to normal, and I am not getting any info. Anyone out there with some advice????
