I have had to do it.... once your stomach starts to get fuller.... don't stress about drinking it every 8-10 minutes.... just get it all into your system.

Don't have the chalky stuff anymore.... basically it's two pills which is a stimulant.... Then you drink a gallon of miralax!

Still have to drink the miralax but now they have you drink citrate of magnesia. Now that stuff alone will kill you lol its sooo bad!! ooo yeah its like every 10mins. This sucks!

if they gave you "Golightly" that crap tastes horrible- but Miralax is tasteless- its the same stuff without the electrolytes. the citrate of magenesium is kind of icky- just make sure its ice cold- and chug!!!!! the miralax will work really well- not as fast or explosive as the citrate but good nonetheless you can do it and just think how cleaned out you will be- it makes the test easier to do. good luck!!- you can do it
