Thank you. I just lost Dad to cancer after caring for him by myself & I was recently diagnosed with MS which is a real drag. Having difficulty swallowing is no fun (I just realized there’s a joke in there somewhere) but anyway. I wanted to THANK YOU. I’m preparing for this procedure Oct 8/24 & I’ve been stressed out & tired so very tired these days which is making me (the guy that usually makes everyone else laugh) feel quite low. Very low actually. Hearing your experience e preparing made me laugh the hardest I ever have in a very long time. The bit about when you went to work out and you nearly sh*t your pants. That was beautiful. Pure poetry. I really lifted me & I felt like I needed to tell you - it meant more than you may ever know to have such a cleansing laugh, I haven’t been able to laugh very much these days & I hope you know I wasn’t laughing AT you but how you explained it & provided the footage. I hope the results were in your favour. Best wishes from Canada ~ Jeff

I didn't get "intolerable" as an emotion from the video at all. I thought it was tastefully presented because the amount of liquid required is a commitment regardless of whether using water or any other liquid. Well done young lady.

Thank you! Starting my prep now (mixed with water and some crystal lite with apple juice chasers)

Thankyou . Very informative and hilarious

You can use WATER instead of GATORADE. That's what my Doctor told me. I did not have no problem with my Colonoscopy. I would just check with my Doctor next time. Hope this helps😀

*I have been in so much pain for the last year and half. I know it sounds wrong but I hope they find something so hopefully it can be fixed or cured*

That tip about drinking something you DONT like is actually so good, I used a lemonade-type of drink, and for the next like 5 months afterwards I couldn't stand drinking lemonade

hold on why blue ??? Colors you can use include clear, yellow, orange, or green. You cannot drink anything that is colored red, blue or purple. These colors can “stain” the inside of your colon and make it harder for the doctors to see any abnormalities.

You don't have to use Gatorade. You could have used water or any clear liquid. Gatorade replaces some of the electrolytes you will lose through the endless diarrhea, but your body would replace these within a few days anyway. This is by far the easiest colonoscopy prep there is, and you do viewers a bit of a disservice by carrying on like it is intolerable.

It’s funny because this time I forgot all the rules… Woke up starving till I realized I was having the procedure the next day.. ran and prepped the drink and started drinking… Although I was oddly not hungry one bit this time I did sniff the food I cooked for my husband😂😂😂

*The prep didn't work for my mum. she didn't poop once. I'm getting a colonoscopy on the 8th of May and a camera down my throat. I'm dreading the prep. I might carry a bucket around with me just in case lol*

What color is it supposed to be to be, after all particles are gone, and clear

Here's the best tip. Don't drink the foul liquid. Ask the gastroenterologist for the pills. They don't like to tell you about them for some reason. If they refuse, tell them you'll find a different doctor.

If you were on a clear liquid diet, how could you do lifesavers??

[TonyField]

Drinking that stuff really is the absolute worst of it and your #ss afterwards not the procedure. But when your recovering from bowel cancer like myself needs must. But really do hate it. 😢

Oh yeah gatorade is pretty healthy....

Smelling some chocolate covered cashews 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Fluid ounces and weight ounces are not the same.

Ok, so anyone reading this with an upcoming procedure I would like you to try this product from Shark Tank it's called "Miracle Berry". I just went through mine and saw the re run of the show after the exam..lol *edit* I posted this to see if I could help some people because the GoLYTELY is HORRENDOUS! Please give some feedback if it works.

Directions clearly say nothing blue or red
