Emptying

Hi everyone! I have a few questions about emptying your pouch. How many times a day do you do it and how long does it take?

And with fruits and veggies, do some just make it take longer/harder to empty or do they actually not come out? If it takes longer, that's a risk I'd be willing to take every now and then, but I would not want food to be stuck in the pouch!

For those who converted from an ileostomy, how does it compare? Emptying the bag is quick and easy, but it's annoying having to do so because it means you have an uncomfortable, full bag attached to you. I'm guessing that's why a kpouch would be better...nothing puffs up under your clothes that might leak.
