Has any post-ops had any experience with fasting?

I had lap rny on Nov 12th and yesterday started a two day juice and water fast. My reasoning behind this was 1) to detoxify my system 2) give my digestive system a rest 3) hopefully shrink my stomach in case I have stretched it out any since surgery and 4) to help break a plateau. I plan on doing this every two weeks or at least every month. Has anyone had any success with fasting or know of any reason why this could be harmful or not helpful?
