Debbie - I have to eat a low residue diet. Nothing with seeds like in fruit or nuts! Sweet potato, potatoes are fine without the skins, fiber, no heathy breads except white bread, Special K cereal, cow milk, ice cream, cheese, yogurt. No raw vegetables or salads. I can eat meat, fish, eggs, yogurt. I can eat can green beans or cooked carrots. White rice, white beard (anything that is unhealthy is fine) Coffee, tea, gatorade ( no red or orange). Bananas are fine, not fruit with seeds or skin. The hospital sent me a list on what to eat and not for the next few day's. Wednesday is only clear liquids. I know, it's important to get it done. I am still nerves. Glad when it's over.
