Crystal Light and #2

...no... not the same subject at the same time. I know we are all comparing notes on when we went #2 after surgery... so I thought I would post that, after a gas-filled night, I finally went this morning. Then, just now, again (much more). So I guess things are working there. Funny... I feel kinda like the Bill Cosby routine.... everyone (with a new baby) standing around.... remarking on the poo... how amazing it is that the person can poo... ...and then... ...God put odor in the poo. Have some Neutra-Air nearby. Trust me. RE CRYSTAL LIGHT Thought I would pass on I am loving the new orange flavor. Then again, as a kid, I was fed TANG all day every day -- and this reminds me of that. So I like it.

Congrats on your surgery, I'm only 3 days away and so excited. I have been on a liquid diet for almost 3 weeks and you are absolutely right about the smell. WHOA, liquid in and liquid out... I'm drinking orange right now, yum. So glad you're doing well, keep it up. Janice

I had thought the smell might be the anesthesia combined with the fact I ate McDonalds up to 1/2 hour before my midnight cut off. (I didn't have any bowel prep or special orders.) I wonder why the liquid diet causes smell? I mean... if we were talking about an all-meat diet, I would understand. Odd. Anyway.... how are you doing? 3 days away? I was a bit bonkers!

Maria, have you tried the Wal-Mart brand of the Crystal Light drinks? They are good, I prefer them over Crystal Light and the price is much better! I love the sugar free Tang!!! I too as a kid was given that and I was so glad to see it in sugar free. Also if you love grapefruit then Crystal Light has a grapefruit flavor and it tastes just like a fresh grapefruit sliced in half with sugar on top!!! ~Angela Surgery TOMORROW.

I am actually doing great, not too nervous at all yet. That could change.
