Bikerboy and cockroach diet here, lol
I eat the same foods now that I ate before.But whats really neat is meat comes out pure liquid.no blockage.nice.
But no nuts ,no coconut,no pop-corn,nothing with a shell,no skin (damn),and carrots you better liquify these,and YEA!!!! no sprouts
the problem with a diet is everybody has one.For me it was trial and error.

Hi fellow San Diegan Bikerboy - diet.  Yes.  My diet is much better now that I have a permanent colostomy than the 5 years I tried to get by in severe pain after all my cancer surgeries.  I hadn't had an apple with the peel on for 7 years!  Couldn't eat spicy food - now bring it on!  Unfortunately I have gained weight, but I figure it is like when giving up smoking...comes with the territory.

Besides what you avoid, I have had a terrible experience with raw pineapple - one of my absolute favorite things.  I almost lived on raw tropical fruits before the colostomy.  Now not so much.  I can eat more cooked veggies; but don't care as much for lettuce.  I also use a lot of Beano!  If I think anything I'm going to eat is going to bother me I chew a couple of those and no worries.

The other things I stay away from are too fiber-y  foods like whole wheat and refried beans!

I began my Urostomy life February 27th, 2023...a month and a half ago. I stumbled upon this site from another on Youtube and website called VeganOstomy and between that site and this one, most of my fear and worry of not having any answers other than calling the Dr's office recording menu and hoping to hear back in the next day or two for an answer to leaks, skin irritations etc, or just feeling alone and the "no one understands" thoughts I had to look forward to in my mind were all put to rest by these two websites and the community here at MaO!! I have been here for a few weeks now, and the help and support offered by the members here is just amazing!! The information and support is absolutely priceless for anyone recently out of their surgery and have tons of questions or had it for years...sit down...have a good read and you will see for yourself!!
