I just want to say that I've had the same problems when I eat bananas before
working out. They give me huge stomach aches and make me want to puke.  I've
avoided them for quite a while now. I might start trying to reintroduce them
though now that I think about it. It might be ok as long as I don't have
them before workouts.
