Post-Op surgery fasting time

I am going to be having surgery for another health problem soon. I will be required to fast before check-in. Since our pouches are so small, they empty out faster than a normal stomach. When mine is empty, I am very uncomfortable. I also get a hunger headache if I don't eat something. How long should WLS patients fast? My doctor has me eating 7 times a day.
