November 2017, my life was over.I had an awful pain in my stomach area. The only thing I wanted to do was to cower in my bed and die. My doctor's diagnosis: gall- stones. Lots of them. Which had shut down my life for the past 6 month without me knowing what was wrong. I had surgery late November. A laparoscopic cholecystectomy. In layperson's terms: my gallbladder was removed. And two days later I was discharged from hospital with the sound advice that I should eat low-fat food from now on.Of course, this suggestion was most helpful (please note my sarcasm) . Until then, fat was an important part of my diet. The human body needs fat. And women in particular need a certain amount of fat every day to stay healthy. And now the doctors and nurses were telling me that, suddenly, I should stop eating fat?O.K., I found out pretty quickly that too much fat isn't good for me. My liver still continues to produce bile, but I don't have a gallbladder anymore to store bile for the times when I eat a lot of fat. And, as it turned out, this had a rather unpleasant effect on my digestion.On the plus side: I really like to cook. So this wasn't the end for me. I started a process of trial and error to find out what my body could tolerate - and what my body wouldn't tolerate. I simply took the dishes that I had liked before my surgery and changed them. Mostly, I cut high-fat ingredients and tried to find substitutes. Also, I tested how much fat my body could tolerate in one meal, and I adapted my recipes to that. Now I have a small collection of recipes tailor-made for people who just had their gallbladder removed. Enjoy!
