My colonoscopy went pretty well. They said my colon looked fine, but it seemed like my intestines weren't always running at full potential. I don't know how they could tell that from a colonoscopy but whatever. They gave me some medicine to try to 'jump start' my colon and see if my issues resolve within the next few weeks. I don't know why they gave me meds for the part that's working correctly, but I guess that's why I'm not a doctor. haha
Now that it's over, I can get back to eating right and recording starting tomorrow, which I'm actually pretty excited about. the bowel prep from the procedure has made me feel pretty bloated and gross. I had to drink a lot of pop over the last several days to keep me full, which I haven't had in a very long time. I think that's the part I'm most excited for, that I can go back to not drinking it. It's crazy how much I really don't like drinking the stuff anymore, it used to be the only thing I would drink. I would never drink water, ever. Now, on average, I get about 60-70 ounces per day. That's what I'm most proud of myself for.
It's also back on the treadmill tomorrow. 17 days until the 5k and I'm nowhere near ready! I need to get some new shoes broken in as well. Final crunch time!
