The liver is

continuing to produce bile, but it trickles down the common bile duct

constantly instead of being stored in the gallbladder until needed.

So there's less bile to work with at one time after a meal -- plus your

body is adjusting to the constant flow of bile, even though it is in

small amounts.

And it can be a problem if, like me, the rest of the system needs a

relatively high fat diet.

I was OK with fats after the gall bladder surgery, but where I ran into a

bit of trouble was last January, when they forbade me to eat ANY fats for

two days before the colonoscopy. My system was producing bile suited to

the amount of fats I normally consume, and there was no fat for it to act

upon. My system was not pleased with this.
