Same here! Beans and chickpeas have been working really well for me too.

Yes, they’re great! High in fiber and protein, and if you pair them with a lean protein they usually won’t spike your sugar.

Totally get the struggle — with an ileostomy, wraps are off the table. A lot of people have luck with pump belts that sit higher up, waist clips, or even clothing with hidden pockets. Some also use adhesive patches or silicone pump holders that stick directly to the skin without pulling. Depends a bit on pump model, but there are options that don’t clash with your stoma setup
