A popular L.A. comic says she had to have 1,000 gallstones removed from her body  all thanks to a Jenny Craig diet … and now she’s suing the  weight loss giant claiming they knew their products were dangerous and did  nothing to warn their customers.

Mara Shapshay — who  regularly performs at the Laugh Factory and writes for Glamour Magazine — filed  a lawsuit against J.C. this week, claiming she started Jenny in 2011 hoping to  shed some lbs … but developed serious medical problems about a year later.

In fact, Shapshay claims she was hospitalized with severe abdominal pain  … and doctors ultimately discovered roughly 1,000 gallstones in her body.

Mara says she was forced to undergo multiple surgeries and now suffers  from fatigue, abdominal pain, nausea and vomiting … and blames J.C. for a  recent miscarriage.

But the worst part, according to Shapshay … Jenny  Craig KNEW its program could lead to gallbladder disease … but failed to  inform their customers of the risks.

Shapshay is seeking unspecified  damage$$$.

Multiple calls and emails to Jenny Craig have not returned.
