I feel like I am getting ready to earn a girl scout badge. No, I am not going to build a bird house out of toothpicks or learn how to build a fire with only foil and a stick. No - I am doing something that is much more intense with explosive results........I am going to have a colonoscopy on Thursday - YEAH!!! Ok - insert (maybe a bad choice of words) all jokes here and go ahead and sing the Roto-Rooter song. (Which once you do - it will be stuck in your head all day. Go ahead try it....don't say I didn't warn you). You know everyone has a story about having "one" done and how bad the prep work is.....really.....how bad can it be drinking clear liquids for a day laced with laxatives?!?!? Of course, my doctor did say today that I should stay close to home while using the "prep" - what a nice word. I am going to re-name this process to "POO-BE-GONE" (echo, echo, echo) or the medical acronym PBG.
So here is my plan for this scientific adventure of PBG:
1. I will be taking my weight first thing in the morning for a benchmark. The goal is to tell you afterwards if an over-the-counter colonic is really worth your disposable cash for that upcoming reunion or wedding that you want to attend.
2. DISCLAIMER -for those of you with a weak stomach - don't read and go to number 3. They always say that corn does not digest and that it comes out looking the same as it went in....I am having corn tonight find out if this is fact or fiction. After this I may become Michael Newman - who firmly believes that nothing good comes out of eating corn and that in the end it will kill you.
3. Record my weight loss throughout the day.
I know that this not a typical topic of conversation, but if you can't talk about poo amongst friends; what can you talk about it?!?! I will keep you posted - I just hope I am worthy of the badge!!!!
