food alternatives

I love salads, but since I had my gall bladder removed, I have a terrible time digesting them, and they stay with me for days. Is there an alternative to the leafy greens that I love or a type that would be easier to digest?
Thanks!

I've had my gall bladder removed also and have no trouble eating salad greens.  Are you sure there isn't something else causing the problem?

Have you tried increasing your fluid intake?  You might also want to try taking some metamucil or similar fiber like supplement to keep things moving better.
