dont know if this has been discussed previously but has anyone done slimming world? I have just signed up and I am worried it wont work as much of the free and speedy food is fruit and veg that cause my stoma to act up and cause leakage. Any ideas about how to reduce the chances of leaks?

I have generic camera case, which is
about 6” x 6” square and 14” long. It is
my carry-on for planes. I have traveled
all over the world with it. In 6 years I
have never been forced to use it in an
emergency. Lucky me. I can carry 2
months worth of supplies in it. I never let
it out of my sight when traveling. Hint:
NEVER PUT YOUR SUPPLIES IN YOUR
SUITCASE as the airline might lose it.

This site has been a blessing for me in learning how to cope with and navigate this journey as an ostomate. I have a colostomy as a result of a perforation in my colon since May of this year. I don't know yet if it will be permanent or reversible. The people on here have provided me with so much advice and information about living with an ostomy that I don't think I could get anywhere else. You all have given me hope and a place to come to for support. I still struggle with acceptance, but know that it will come if I am patient. Patience has never been my strong suit! Also, I love all the humor, although it really pissed me off when I first came on here. Thanks to all of you.

No, I don't do it.
