    I was told to eat normal up until 1 hour before the test. I didn't think they wanted your fasting before the 1 hour because they want to see how your body processes the glucose normally. I had a big lunch full of carbs two hours before and still passed it. Good luck!

    Just took mine yesterday! Doc said the 1 hour is made to be taken after food, the 3 hour is made for fasting. After you drink the juice, you can't eat or drink anything for that hour before they draw your blood. She did make sure I didn't have donuts for breakfast, as that would most likely cause me to fail.

    I had mine last week and was told to fast. My appointment was at 9 AM.
