Hi all I have just had my gallbladder removed last week and so I need to adapt my diet to reduce fats to keep everything working inside me correctly. So I am looking for any recipes or web sites that people might recommend. Mainly dinner meals - currently I am just eating chicken breasts and fish - I haven't been brave enough to venture to red meat. And I am keeping clear of cheese at present except I have had some low fat cottage cheese on my sandwhich for lunch along with salad. I have been making my version of rissotto and that has been going fine I would also like some recipes for low fat "snacks" to take to work for morning tea - I used to take biscuits, sometimes home made but more shop bought ones. But any tht you can help me with - basically I have to watch fat on meats, full fat dairy including cheeses and also eggs. Also any recipes from those who have ben where I am and they have worked for them would also be appreciated. Thanks so much for any suggestions, recipes or links to sites.

Healthy Food Guide mag is fantastic and I also like this site from the BBC
Just eat low fat food, don't add oil and butter.Eat fresh produce, veges fruit, lean cuts of meat.quite simple

Meat, veges and some fruit, lots of salads and fish - a bit of nuts and dairy - not too much cream, olive oil or butter and you will be fine. In time the body adapts and you can use a bit more fat.

if you can get hold of a recipe book called Nosh then it will be very helpful, I too had my gallbladder removed and found this book great

thanks so much everyone. I found that I could get a subscription to Healthy Food Guide magazine from my Flybuys points so I have done that. I had my first lot of red meat the other day - silverside which I made sure all the fat was off and that went down fine so I am happy with that.

Me too, five years ago.I asked if I needed to stick to a special diet of any sort and was told to just eat what I wanted, so I did/do, no problems.

Me too, 10 years ago. Eat what I want, no problems. Everybody is different; trial and error I suppose, but food has never been an issue.

thanks sticky232, kuaka and nojack for that. Fingers crossed everything will be the same for me, but probably this isn't a bad time for me to review what I eat and maybe make some changes for the better. :)
