For about: 8 weeks, you should avoid fatty or fried foods, until your system gets accustomed to absence of storage capacity of gallbladder. After that, you should be able to be on unrestricted diet. Ask your surgeon to be sure.

Fatty foods : There is really no restriction per say. Fatty foods can cause diarrhea and cramps for majority of patients. Some pts have no issues at all. Others, get better w time and some never get better. Diarrhea is annoying but if dont mind, eats whatever. Imodium (loperamide) can help as well.
