I was wondering the same thing since I can eat anything I could eat before I had mine out. I got mine out in June of this year and the doctor told me there were no restrictions. I was on clear liquids the first day but that was just because the outpatient procedure turned into a 4 hour major surgery with 3 fun filled days in the hospital and going home with a drain in my side for 10 days after. Good times. After that first day, I could eat anything though. I don't eat fried or fatty or spicy foods but didn't before either. I have no problems at Disney, don't need to talk to the chef or get anything special and can eat anywhere.I had mine removed over 20 yers ago and have no restrictions. Has she tried the foods and had issues or is following the doctor’s advice.
My surgeon told me 80% have no issues, the other 20% do. I fall into the 20%. Primary care told me it could take several years to acclimate. I‘m 18 months out. I can eat most things, except the fried/greasy stuff.I was wondering the same thing since I can eat anything I could eat before I had mine out.

I think the fried greasy stuff is an issue for most, especially early on. I think a lot of people need to experiment to see what fits for them. Like I said, I didn't eat fried/greasy stuff before I got mine out so it wasn't a big adjustment for me not to eat it now. (I have very high triglycerides which are being controlled by drugs but still have to watch what I eat). Tums are my best friend.My surgeon told me 80% have no issues, the other 20% do.
