Part Thirty: GoLytely

I hadn't really planned on eating much today, but I ended up going to lunch with my friend Nurse Megan. While looking at the menu, I joked that we should choose the meal that would be the most interesting coming back out of me a few hours later.

My parents were throwing around the idea of going to dinner with my grandparents this evening, but I opted to go home and start the pooping process while watching the baseball game.

The GoLytely came in a powdered form inside of a 4-liter jug. I was instructed to fill the container with lukewarm water and shake until the powder dissolved. I mixed it earlier in the day and threw it in the fridge to chill. I was told by multiple parties that the solution was more palatable when cold.

The instructions indicate that I'm supposed to have 8 ounces every 10 minutes. All I have to say to that is, "YEAH RIGHT!"

Around 7pm, I started drinking the stuff. At first, it seemed rather tasteless... then I started to notice a kind of vegetable-like aftertaste. After the first 6 ounces, I started gagging and spat up the remainder.

Over the next hour and a half, I managed to gag down another 16 ounces. I started pooping around 8pm. I've gone several times since then and after the first few times it went from squishy to wet to me peeing out of my butthole.

I can't stop drinking the stuff until the stuff coming out of me is completely clear.

I'm not sure if I'm going to make it.
The surgery will be a piece of cake compared to this.
