Pre-prep diet question

pre-prep diet question

Hi all,
I am getting a colonoscopy on Monday. Woopie!
today and tomorow I am on a low fiber diet. Unfotunately I am craving doritos. Of course its likely because I think I can't have them.

Does anyone know? Are chips a no-no on the low fiber diet? It is not listed on the instruction sheet they gave me.

Merry Christmas everyone!

Doritos have 4-7% of our daily fiber intake per serving (depending on the flavor). I guess if you really want them (cause since when is their serving size ever enough? I go for half the bag on my Dorito binges) then lower your fiber intake with other foods but most people don't eat their full daily fiber anyway.

I was never told to be on a special diet for a scope, just to not eat after a certain time before starting the prep but every doctor seems to prep differently. Just check the food labels before eating.
