Colonoscopy Prep and I can't stand it!

I dislike myself for feeling so sorry for myself but here goes:
I'm feeling like I'm starving! How do people go without solid food for one whole day? I feel as though I'm being treated unfairly. Where is the fairness in this? Why can't they see around the food? Its 2005 for goodness sakes! Technology? Where is the technology?
I know I live in the USA and food is always around and I've only had to go without when I was very young due to my parents issues with money but I think that has made me more dependent on food and I can't seem to come to terms with not eating today! I feel so lousy.
I can't reschedule it.
Why can't I just get through this? Some people go without eating for days because they have no food/money etc. and here I am whining. Ugh I hate myself right now.
Will I survive this? Yes!
Will I give in and eat before tomorrow? No!
You've went through this and lived, right?

Look at this way
Hey Heidi!
You are not alone!
It went well! The worst part was the prep, and then maybe the iv. But I was out for both the upper and lower scopes and I woke up feeling tired but fine. The nurses and my doctor were great.
I have GERD and a spastic Colon. My doctor gave me two prescriptions, Ranitidine 300MG for the GERD and Dicyclomine 20MG for bloating and cramps.
I'm pleased I went through with this and happy to find out I don't have anything too serious.
:-)
Thanks for your helpful advice and well wishes.

Heidi!
All a spastic colon is, is IBS!
Thanks Lynn. You have been so helpful. :-)
I hope your weekend is wonderful.
