How do you not feel your stomach drop on roller coasters?

Go on coasters that have curving first drops then work your way up to rides with drops straight off the lift, then launch coasters, etc. Roller coasters with big drops that curve on the way down don't have the same pit in your stomach feeling as plunging straight down does. Haven fun!
