After Gallbladder Surgery: Foods to Avoid

While your body adjusts, it is a good idea to avoid high-fat foods for a few weeks after having gallbladder surgery. High-fat foods include:

• Foods that are fried, like French fries and potato chips


• High-fat meats, such as bacon, bologna, sausage, ground beef, and ribs


• High-fat dairy products, such as cheese, ice cream, cream, whole milk, and sour cream


• Pizza


• Foods made with lard or butter


• Creamy soups or sauces


• Meat gravies


• Chocolate


• Oils, such as palm and coconut oil


• Skin of chicken or turkey

High-fiber and gas-producing foods can also cause some people discomfort after gallbladder surgery, so you may want to introduce them slowly back into your diet. These include:

• Cereals


• Whole-grain breads


• Nuts


• Seeds


• Legumes


• Brussels sprouts


• Broccoli


• Cauliflower


• Cabbage

Spicy foods may also cause some gastrointestinal symptoms for a short time after gallbladder removal.

If you need help devising a diet plan after your surgery, ask your doctor to refer you to a registered dietitian.
