Plus the Bride started being an after school bus monitor which means we don't get out of here until 4:30 pm and home at 5 -5:15 depending on traffic.

If you haven't done this, you might consider taking digestive enzymes anytime you have much of a fatty meal.  There are numerous brands but Mega-Zyme work best for me.  Available at about any decent health foods store.  One tablet just before a meal or during.  Heavy meal then double up.  It's worth a try.  After losing my gall bladder, it wasn't long before waist line started to grow.  My doc said that was common.  Mega-Zyme helps both that and most of the other unpleasant effects that can come with no gall bladder.  I assume you have your liver function checked routinely.

Any changes in being able to lose weight after having your gall bladder removed.

I am having a hard time since I have not returned to the gym.
Depends, how much did your gall bladder weigh?
