Rider,
Spicy food doesn't affect me at all. I love my hot wings. No more of that burning asshole problem when it comes out.
When I eat bananas, I eat them with cereal or something. And they don't cause obstructions with everyone. I, for some reason, can't tolerate them very well. But I do that with most foods that can cause obstructions. Just chew your food well and eat with something that digests normally.
I'll do a post about the good, bad, and the ugly later.

Yes, it is okay to lift weights with your ostomy. But be somewhat careful to not put a great deal of stress on your body. Just saying.

About a year after my ostomy surgery, my sister Michelle and I did a week-long "rollercoaster crawl". I did get medical clearance from my doctor. Anyway, we hit Cedar Point, Kennywood, Idlewild Park, Lakemont Park, and Knoebel's.
To back up a little bit, we'd always talked about doing a coaster crawl together. When I had my surgery done, I ended up being in the hospital for six weeks, including 10 days in ICU. She promised me that when I got better, we'd take that trip.
So if you get medical clearance, by all means ride as many coasters as you want.
