@linda82 That sounds like me. I get so hungry and start eating the foods I shouldn't.
I can't drink any carbonated sodas. I feel like I'm going to explode. I don't get any pain on my right side, but I do on my left side.

Hello @sharonlynne

I am glad that you posted in this discussion group. As I've read some of your other posts, I see that you had gallbladder surgery and that you have had discomfort since then. Any type of digestive tract surgery affects the kinds of foods we eat, as well as how much we eat.

Is eating small, frequent meals helpful to you? I see that carbonated beverages cause discomfort. Have you found any other types of foods (or drinks) that are triggers for discomfort?
