Hi nana1947,
When I had to do that prep, this is what I did and it really helped. Pick a hot beverage that you like that is ok during prep (I would pick something without caffeine since no food + caffeine can make you shaky, or at least it made me shaky). Something like hot apple juice or hot decaf green tea or even broth in a cup. If you pick something that is aromatic, that really helps. Warming the beverage really helps get the oily texture of the Colyte out of your mouth. That beverage is your chaser.
After every gulp of Colyte I would immediately take a deep breath of the aromatic beverage and then take a sip. That was the only way I could keep the Colyte down. I really hope your prep and colonoscopy go well!
