I just had my gallbladder removed, What is the next step for me?

I am 10 months post op and had an emergency surgery to remove my gallbladder, while I was in the hospital I gained 16lb but the DR says it is because of the fluid, I weighed 130 before I had my gallbladder removed and currently weighing at 146, will I lose this or is this gonna hang around for a while? Another question I have is that I have never had any surgery where something was removed and I was very proud to say that I had all my body parts and organs that God gave me, can someone tell me how important was my gallbladder to my body and will I function just fine without it or will I have problems in the future?
