Going to Bed

It's going to be the only way to get my mind off the fact I'm ready to raid the refrigerator. And all the food posts are driving me to distraction. My stomach is making noise. Besides after drinking that stuff, I'm exhausted and ready for a good nights sleep. I'll be back here first thing in the morning to do the Bible Study, and hopefully cut down these notifications some before I need to leave at 9 AM. I need to be at the hospital by 9:30. So only a few more hours and it will be all over except the crying, as they say. But what's ahead is the easy part. The worst is past. So I hope you all have a good night/day and I will see you tomorrow. Thanks for reading. Good night.

I guess I need to go back and read previous posts to know what you're talking about. Maybe you're getting a colonoscopy? I'll go look.

@fufurinha The colonoscopy itself is all right. It's drinking the stuff to clean out the colon that is awful. But that is behind me and I will be leaving for the hospital in a couple hours now.

@just4him I saw your other post. I lost 5 pounds thanks to you. I ate more than I wanted today, but was celebrating with you. Back to dieting tomorrow. You gave me a good kick in my pants!

@DianneN I'm happy for you! Congratulations on the weight loss. I didn't mean to give you a kick in the pants. With everything I've been through today, I'm considering going to bed soon. Hopefully tomorrow everything will be back to normal. I want to get back to the pool, but we'll see.

It went good. I just posted about it a little bit ago. I'm eating right now. So you can quit your diet you were doing with me. That was so sweet. I lost another 13 pounds this past four days. So it was worth it in a way. I know I'll gain some of that back since I'm now eating, but hopefully I can keep most of that off as well. It's now 35 pounds off.

I hope so too. My only worry is whether my son will be on time to pick me up. I called him last night to remind him.

Waiting for you to return and tell us that you are okay and what you are going to eat FIRST. That should be interesting.

I'm back, I've posted, and I'm eating. I'm just about finished with steak, eggs, and hash browns. I'm on my second large mug of milk and working on the steak.

I did, and I got more sleep today after the procedure. So I'll be here for a while now.

I hope that all goes well for you especially since you;re not planning on drinking the final 'nasty stuff' in the morning. Next time, if there is a next time, ask whether you can do the miralax and gatorade instead. It's not as nasty. I thought it would be awful but the worst part was drinking a large quantity in about an hours time. The taste wasn't so bad.

We're going to have a long talk about any next time. I know there is another alternative - pills. You need to take a lot of them in a matter of hours, but at least it's not drinking that nasty stuff.

@just4him I've never heard of anyone taking only pills for the prep for this, unless you're talking about laxatives. I had to take some of those, bt it was along with the gatorade and miralax mixture.

@MarshaMusselman That's what he said, just the pills. So if it does come to that again, we're going to have a serious talk about that method.
