Liquid Diet

The previous two days diet has been low-fiber, while today's diet was strictly clear liquids featuring a gallon of Colyte. The other day I was trying to remember what this product's name was and instead of "Colyte" I said "Loctite" - uh, not quite right. Colyte is part of the pre-colonoscopy procedures, it cleanses the bowel.

Scheduled for 10:30 AM tomorrow is the appointment at Gwinnett Day Surgery for a colonoscopy and upper endoscopy. Let's hope everything comes out OK.
