Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Some people have a slightly more difficult time digesting fatty foods for the first month after surgery. Eating a low-fat diet may help. Temporary diarrhea. Because your gallbladder is no longer there to regulate the flow of bile, it will flow more constantly, but in smaller amounts, into your small intestine.

Detailed explanation-2: -The gallbladder collects and concentrates bile, releasing it when you eat to aid the digestion of fat. When the gallbladder is removed, bile is less concentrated and drains more continuously into the intestines, where it can have a laxative effect. The amount of fat you eat at one time also plays a role.
