Don't drink water that can affect your results and then they will have to do a 4 hour thats the worse.

I was told not to eat anything sweet or loaded with carbs as that too breaks down to sugar, & could drink water.

My doctor told me not to eat within two hours of the test, but i ended up not eating for 12 plus hours because my appointment was at 9. I did drink water though and i passed, 71 out of 140

My doctor told me to eat normally, just to avoid eating something super sweet a few hours before the test...

Mine didn't say to fast or anything. And I ate normally. The test tests how your blood normally is. Not just how you are right before the test. You can eat normally. Unless your pounding in all the sugar possible ul be fine
