If i'm having a colonoscopy this thursday can i eat cheese eggs and yogurt tuesday?

Not recommended: Cheese and yogurt can be constipating and therefore making it harder for you to cleanse properly. If not properly cleansed the flat polyps might be missed on examination.

Yes: Generally you can eat low residue items such as cheese, eggs, yogurt and meats until the day before the colonoscopy. Many endoscopists will ask that you stop fruits and vegetables with skin, like tomatoes or grapes, as well as seeds and nuts a few days earlier as these tend to get left behind during the prep. The day before you will need to take only clear liquids.
