I had my gallbladder out many years ago and back then they gave me a 6 inch incision on my stomach with a little indent on one end of the incision. I know they cut my stomach muscles when they removed it, or at least that is what I was told at the time. I never exercised after the surgery to any real degree. Now I am trying to get in shape and would like to get a flat stomach. My question is, will having had my stomach muscles cut previously, in any way, affect my ability to obtain a flat stomach? My stomach seems to protrude a little more between the incision and my belly button. Also, no one ever told me about bile salts and recently I have been reading about them. I don't have very many problems eating, except going to the bathroom soon after eating and bloating and gas. Would bile salts help me? Will it help digest more of my food? Or should I leave well enough alone and not take them?
