Having the procedure in three weeks time. Pl what fruits and vegs can I eat 2 days before procedure? I am having it done in the afternoon and I am dreading it!! I have in mind cheese, ham and eggs sandwiches for lunch and chicken and fish, is salmon ok for supper for vegs carrots and dessert a banana. For breakfast a yoghurt or white bread toast. I understand mayonnaise is ok as I can have a tuna pasta with mayonnaise. Any other suggestions on diet most welcome. Somebody mentionned consomme during the fast, never been without food for that long. Thanks

I stuck to very plain foods, chicken, mashed potatoes, no veg or fruit, white fish, that kind of thing. The hospital sent me a diet sheet which was very precise about what you should and shouldn't eat.
I found the diet okay, a bit bland but it's only for a couple of days, and I can't say I was at all hungry. In fact it was quite good fun to devise a menu based on the diet sheet. The procedure itself was fine. There were a couple of uncomfortable moments but they passed in seconds and the staff were really kind and supportive. For me, the worst part of all was having to drink so much water, it felt like gallons of the stuff, but it did mean I wasn't hungry during the time when I wasn't allowed to eat!!!
Like most people, I was apprehensive but the prep and procedure itself were, if not exactly a barrel load fun, nothing to be aafraid of.
Hope yours goes well.
