Is Fruits And Vegetables Intake After A Colonoscopy Safe?

I am having a colonoscopy on Thursday. I know not to eat solid foods on Wed. But, I can not find my instructions and I thought the doctor said no fruits or vegetables on Tuesday. Could this be correct? I will call in the a.m., but I can t sleep thinking about this.
