Well, last night was shitty (literally). I will say for anyone who has never had a colonoscopy before that it is a marathon, not a race. Drinking each part of the colon prep takes time, and you should be patient with yourself. I tend to be the kind of person who would rather rush the process just to get it over with. I would chug a large glass of prep all at once, but then became extremely bloated and uncomfortable. Learn from my mistakes and listen to your body when doing any kind of colon prep. Also, expect to catch up on sleep once your test is over. I was in and out of the restroom the entire night, so by the time we left for the procedure, I was ready for a fat nap. Thankfully, my colonoscopy results came back to show that everything is normal! I am extremely relieved with these results and happy to be able to enjoy food again. I definitely was eating small snacks and meals today after having such a limited diet yesterday. Zach did stop by Starbucks on the way home from the procedure and I ordered this delicious Banana Bread Matcha Latte with Coconut Milk. First time trying this specialty drink and I highly recommend! I look forward to getting a good night of rest tonight and cooking up something tasty for dinner tomorrow.
