Originally, I decided to try out the keto diet late in 2018; unfortunately, because of possible genetic factors, the diet itself or otherwise, my Gall Bladder gave out very early into the diet and once it gave out, I would have Gall Bladder Attacks anytime I ate a food with fat in it... Ironically, the only type of food that I could eat that would not trigger an attack, was carb heavy food. So from time of first attack to operation was just under a year, definitely the most brutal year of my life diet wise, if you choose to do Keto, do it smart.
Now, I am back on Keto, without a Gall Bladder so I am very restricted in what my body can process; from what I understand, the liver has to work extra hard to break down fats without a Gall Bladder, so its been salad, meat, eggs and thats it, still managing to maintain a deficit while in Ketosis, avoiding carbs and fats as much as I can to an extent, supplementing with rasperry keytones daily since I just can't get the fats in.
So basically, I have lived carb heavy for a year and lived on a very modifided keto on and off for about a year, I say on and off because I am pacing my liver, give it some time off, definitely dont want it failing lol.
I ballooned up while on carbs, real bad, I never weighed myself but I had to be at least 280, I plan on hitting 180 in 3 months.
