Will losing weight matter?

After having my gallbladder removed I started to have problems with my digestion - bloating, gas, belching which can make you feel like a soar stomach. I have been tested for everything and the only thing that it may be is backup of bile which I take med for it. I still get the symptoms from time to time.

I still need to lose 100 lbs do you think that might cure my symptoms or will it improve my symptoms?

Has anyone lost weight and had less problems?

Well , I lost 27# which took me down to 117 and I didn't see any difference in my acid reflux problems.

I have a 100 lbs to lose and famous doctors on TV have said it really does matter. My doctor said it will get you healthy and to fight off sickness but won't change my condition. I thought stomach fat put pressure on your stomach.
