Starts at 4:30. Gotta drink that nasty tasting liquid. I need info, not sympathy, though sympathy would be nice. The requested info: I can’t remember how long after drinking that goop the ‘unloading’ begin?
Man, I’m hungry. No food till around lunch tomorrow. Situation is awful and soon to get worse.

The fun started for me within an hour after consuming the first cup and continued for around 4 hours. Getting past the taste is the hardest part. I cut mine with Sprite. Good luck and stay close to the toilet.

Your fun has not even started yet. Hint...put the prep in the fridge. Drinking it cold makes it a little more tolerable.
I am still looking for the perfect apron, one with reinforced knee areas would be perfect.

The ‘stuff’ is chilled, and I have Sprite. Unless they find something that needs to be monitored, this is the last one of these I’ll agree to.

Tasted like chilled dog sweat. I changed into some easily removable baggy shorts.
I drank the first glass at 4:30 pm. I’ll time it till the first uuuuuh movement.

What time is your procedure? The earlier the better, be sure to ease into that first meal.

Because of other Agent Orange issues, I get the clean out once a year. Trust me it never gets easier, just more tolerable. Good luck.

35 minutes, and some gurgling is going on, but that’s it so far.
9:30 tomorrow morning is the procedure. Hopefully food at that time won’t be a problem. I’m thinking about lunch at Walk Ons in Waco. Burger and waffle fries.
Honestly, nothing sounds good right now. Tummy is twitchy.

Percolating! Slow and easy wins the race. All I wanted after mine was a cup of coffee!

They make several different things to clean you out. If you don't request a certain one they will likely just prescribe the big gallon jug thing. Ask for Prepopik. That's what they gave me. Tastes like a citrus flavored kool aid and you only have to drink about 16 ounces or something like that.

I thought I was going to eat a hole pizza after mine. But I was scared to eat after the events of the night before.

Tasted like a really strong orange drink to me. And that's coming from someone who is really really picky when it comes to what he will eat or drink. Im the type that refuses to take any liquid meds at all because I have a history of barfing because they all taste so bad. I had severe reservations about taking this stuff as well but it was a piece of cake.

My last was 10 years ago. First meal afterwards was a tray full at Luby’s. My next will be later this year, too bad Luby’s just shut down last week.
