Magnesium Citrate and Optisource
WOW! I had to buy the 10 oz bottle of Magnesium Citrate, better known as the bowel cleanse for the day before my surgery and seriously...
THAT CRAP LOOKS SCARY!!!!!!!!
It was so funny, it was on the bottom shelf, plain glass bottle, clear liquid, plain ole label, no frills for that company. I mean why would they want to market that stuff anyway, lol??? Who really cares about the packaging? The only people buying it are people who HAVE to buy it.
Then, I tried the sample of the pill my team wants us to use for the first year, it is Optisource by Novartis. FOUR TIMES A DAY! Wow.
I will admit, and I haven't really told the surgeon this, I've never been a good pill taker. I've never really had to take pills, so that may be why. I know how important that is and I'm really hoping I won't be forgetful. Maybe I need to get some kind of watch to beep at me and remind me??
Pre-op diet day 4 is FAB.
My post from last night is hilarious to me today...I was so emotional and serious! LOL! Just a lot on my mind and trying to give myself a pep talk, I guess.
Muay Thai kickboxing tonight, i can't wait. I am SO going to miss it after surgery, but I *hope* I can get back soon.
Hope all is well in TT land.
