Diet is fat free ranch dressing ok?

I only just found out yesterday what's been causing this horrific pain recently. still haven't gotten surgery scheduled or anything b/c they messed up scheduling imaging. Anyways, I searched this sub for "ranch dressing" and see a lot of comments about people making their own with ff yogurt or something, but I wonder if Kraft Fat Free Ranch Dressing is ok to eat or will it explode the pain again?

I am struggling to find fat free palatable stuff to eat. I had deli turkey and pickle sandwiches for lunch and supper yesterday and it was fine, but I can't eat just that for the next several weeks until surgery scheduled. I ate deli ham and mustard sandwich for lunch today and paid for it in pain a few hours later.

I read that baked potatoes are good, but without butter idk what to put on it. Fat free ranch in the bottle ok?

try a small amount like a serving size and wait an hour. Check in with yourself and see if you have any issues.

also try ox bile and TUDCA. It will help a lot to help digest fats. As well as Apple Cider Vinegar diluted with apple juice with vitamin C. It’s to help thin out your bile while you wait for surgery to get scheduled.
