emwei3 9 Posted March 25, 2015 I'm scheduled for Apr 15 with Dr. Curiel through ALM. So excited, yet nervous too! I start preop in about one week's time. I've been purging food and trying to make sure that I have a clean cupboard and fridge because this is going to be hard at first, but so worth it! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SassyRNMom 7 Posted March 25, 2015 I tried the chicken Unjury, and it wasn't bad. I was going to get some diet cranberry to try the unflavored. I have done my share of liquid diets and I am dragging my feet at trying the others. They smell like tube feedings to me Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
