Hey everyone,
I’m going through the clear liquid diet right now (colonoscopy is tomorrow). I’m really hungry now, and can’t stop thinking about what I’m going to eat tomorrow.
I know I’m supposed to ease back into solid food, but I’m craving a plate of fried rice. Can I eat rice after colonoscopy, or should I wait a bit longer?

Hi Leon,
Plain white rice is generally fine once you’re fully awake and your tummy feels settled. I used to tell my residents to start with something bland like rice, mashed potato, or dry toast.
Just avoid anything greasy or high in fibre for the rest of the day… so, no fried rice yet!
