    WOW! Good for you for being dedicated and sticking with it! I truly believe after going through all of that to have the surgery, you will be successful!
    Honestly, I think your "cleanse" will be either the 2 week pre op liquid diet your surgeon will put you on or even the couple days before on just Clear liquids. No need to do an actual cleanse.
    Good Luck to you on your upcoming surgery! You worked hard for it!

    Congratulations. The perseverance you have shown will definitely help you succeed.
    As to the cleanse, I have never done one and am not a fan of the idea. That said, I would definitely run the idea by your NUT and surgeon. Your goal now should be as healthy as possible as you go into surgery.

    Congrats on your approval and approaching surgery date!! Way to stick with it!!
    I agree that your preop liquid diet should help clear your system out. You could gradually work towards that by say having a Protein shake for Breakfast instead of your usual diet until you start all liquids.< /p>
    Best wishes on your journey!!

    I finally got approved after finally battling for over a year to get approved. Had to go through 12 months of Supervised diet, then an additional 5 months before they approved me. But I finally got my date for July 7th and I can't wait to get my new life started.
    I have thought about doing a cleanse before I under go the surgery though, has anyone else done that and what type of cleanse if they have?
    I'm also really struggling with not wanting to eat everything under the sun that I might possibly not get after the surgery. I am proud that I was able to finally quit drinking pop and am strictly on Water infused with fruits and herbs so that I don't have to struggle with that after the surgery. One withdrawal symptom done and over with.
    Need to get some before pictures done yet so I have them for myself. Can't wait to finally feel good and proud of myself again. No one can take this from me anymore but myself now!!
