Pre-Test Instructions. Before the glucose challenge screening, you can eat normally, so you may eat bread if you like. However, before the glucose tolerance test, you have to fast for eight to 14 hours. All you can have is a few sips of water during this time, so most women schedule the test early in the morning. You should follow these instructions since eating anything -- including bread -- could skew the results.
