Bear in mind that your profile preferences do not always get pushed to the reservation/PNR, so make sure to add the request to the reservation as well.
If the special meal was loaded, they typically frown upon you switching since catering only load an average of 1 meal per person + crew meals, and the special meal replaces one of the main courses. Nonetheless, you may get a more accommodating FA.
