jamileemcquivey

⸻ Welcome to ”Gallbladder Gone? Now What: A Podcast for Christian Women”—where faith meets functional health with your host, Jami McQuivey: Holistic Nutritionist, boy mom, grandma, and passionate believer in God’s design for healing. Every year, over 1.2 million Americans lose their gallbladders—most of them women. But what comes next? For too many, the answer is pain, confusion, and being dismissed by modern medicine. That was Jami’s story too—until she discovered the truth: managing symptoms isn’t the same as healing. If you’re tired of bloating, fatigue, hormone imbalances, weight gain, or fear around food—this podcast is for you. Jami shares real, practical insights rooted in research, global wisdom, and the Word of God. Her approach is different: she doesn’t mask symptoms—she helps you heal the root cause with timeless principles that have helped women for generations. Here, we get practical, biblical, and real—because your health matters, your story matters, and God hasn’t forgotten you. No gallbladder? No problem. There’s a plan—and there’s hope.

    77. The REAL Reason You Can't Lose Weight After Gallbladder Removal (Not What You Think)

    I’ve created a powerful free training: “3 Easy Tips to Heal Digestion in 7 Days”. This gives you the exact framework I walk clients through — so you can start seeing results immediately www.HealthyByDesign4You.com YOUTUBE: https://youtu.be/TifEXaEZdwE Struggling to lose weight after gallbladder removal — no matter how clean you eat or how hard you try? You are not broken, and it is not your fault. In this video, holistic nutritionist and digestive specialist Jami McQuivey reveals the real reason weight loss stalls after gallbladder surgery: your digestion was never truly healed. When the gallbladder is removed, the liver — the true root cause — is left unaddressed, bile flow becomes disrupted, and your body loses the ability to properly metabolize the fats it needs to produce hormones like estrogen, progesterone, and thyroid hormones. The result? Stubborn belly weight, crushing fatigue, bloating, brain fog, and mood swings that no diet can fix — because no diet is targeting the right problem. If you are a woman post-gallbladder surgery wondering why nothing is working, this video will finally give you the answers your doctor never explained. God designed your body to heal fully — and today we start uncovering how.   Connect With Me YouTube: Gallbladder Gone? Now What?
