Thread: My Gallbladder has to be taken out because of this HCG Diet

I did several rounds of HCG about 6 years ago and lost weight, felt great...but life happened and went into depression and gained it all back plus tons more. So last year at my heaviest ever 230 Lbs, I went on this Original HCG protocals and have done over 5 rounds now. My losses have always been very slow...slower than most, less than .5 Lb per day. But, I didnt give up and continued with the slow painful losses and have lost 45 lbs, and felt great, started working out bought new clothes. And have been maintaining for a few months now by doing keto diet. And now I have this gallbladder pain which they are telling me is because of all the dieting and have to have a consult with a surgeon to see if my Gallbladder has to come out. I am so depressed about this whole thing. I try so hard to eat right, stay off sugar and low calories and now Im finding out that the process of being off fat for so long (HCG diet) and then going to high fat can cause damage to the gallbladder which is called Gallbladder sludge which then leads to gallbladder stones. I think this is so unfair. My husband and other people eat anything they want all day long and they dont get gallbladder problems....My question is for those that have had their gallbladder taken out, can I still lose weight? Can I still do HCG diet with no gallbladder? I really dont know any other way of losing weight...it would be wonderful if I could find a way like some people and lose weight eating 1200 calories or lose weight doing ketogenic but that doesnt make me lose weight. My metabolism is soooo incredibly slow and now even slower after doing all these HCG 500 calorie rounds. So what now? If I get my gallbladder out, will all the weight come back? If I continue doing the HCG diet with no gallbladder, will it cause liver damage? Will I end up getting stones in the liver instead? or end up with fatty liver cirrhosis due to the low calories and switching to more fat?
