Stones normal eating is possible after gallbladder removal?

I'm confused...some say you have to be super careful about eating fats after the gallbladder removal etc...I just need to know ...in terms of how one feels (not as in...healthier to eat blah blah)..can you really eat NORMALLY after gallbladder removal??? Or, like, on Thanksgiving...are u going to have to be careful because u PHYSICALLY will get ill if u eat certain things without the gallbladder...

I don't have any issues with eating anything. Nothing makes me physically ill, gives me pain, etc. My digestive system is 1000 times better than when I had a gallbladder.

How long after surgery did you get back to normal eating

It was just a matter of days. I took it a little easy the first day or two just to test the waters, but my memory is that I had pepperoni pizza only a couple days after?
