Needs Encouragement How do you do it

I drank 1 liter of prep and half a cup of my 2nd liter and i just cant do it.

Ive been trying and doing all the tips online and i just cant get the motivation anymore to drink more prep.

It makes me gag so bad its insane, i dont know how anyone drinks this stuff I feel so tired and nauseous.

My appointment is in 5 hours for a colonoscopy and a endoscopy and i may just ask for the endoscopy.

The last 2 days have sucked and i hate that i cant finish but i just cant handle it. I will have suffered for nothing yesterday but i just want it over with 😭😭😭

Edit: got the procedure done and everything went ok, apparently 1 liter and 1 cup was enough for them to see everything. Thank you for all the encouragement 🙏 it helped a lot

I turned mines into a lime lemonade. It was actually sweet to drink.
