You need to talk with your GI about this.  There may be some scar tissue where food is having trouble passing and causing you pain.  Also once the colon has been operated on and starts to function normally, it can stop again at some point and they start again, so ask your surgeon about this as well.  If you know what foods cause this I would avoid them until seeing your doctor.
