snugger,
There are several posts on this subject. Below is one of many ostomy food charts that lists foods that cause obstructions as well as what other foods can do. Hope this helps.
Below is a link to one of the original posts.

Yeah wow, this site helped so much, I mean really who do you know with this infliction? No one, felt so alone and disgusted by myself every turn.
But it ended up being so damn strengthening, I got fucking moving, really only another choice.
That's
Honesty
Truth
I was damaged by a procedure and ended waking with this, I understand all of you.. perhaps you had to have it, I get it.. doesn't matter either way.
Just wanted to share that

Snugger? I have had two blockages prior to my ostomy, or are you talking about after the surgery. If you are talking about after the surgery I can’t help for I haven’t experienced a blockage since the surgery, some one will chime in and hopefully be able to help!! Good luck
