I'm hoping to avoid puking and I have put away 3/4 gallon tomorrow and another 1/4 Thursday AM before my procedure.

Is there a point at which you have to stop pouring in Crystal Light packets? What's a good dose for flavor?

Sorry, I've never used the stuff, maybe no one else either... but I'm bumping this again just in case.

I made the mistake once during prep of putting in ALL of the flavor packets because I thought it would make the whole thing more tolerable. DONT DO THAT. I ended up stuck with a gallon of thick fruit punch. I'm still traumatized from it. Just pick 1 flavor and refrigerate the stuff first. It goes down "easier" when it's cold.

Yes, use a straw- it helps down it quicker

The pharmacy included a flavor pack of their own kind - white powder in "lemon" flavor - it's hardly masking the consistency and awfulness of this gloppy liquid

I'm struggling, folks. This is the worst part.
