Hello July 2018 sleevers!

My name is Taylor and while I have been lurking for the past 9 months I finally have a surgery date! Nice to 'meet' y'all!

My EGD is scheduled for July 12th. My Gallbladder US and Pre Op appointment are both on July 17th (the day before my 22nd birthday!). My VSG will be done on July 23rd by Dr. Dexter Turnquest at Houston Northwest. I'm so hype y'all don't even know.

As soon as I heard that I was approved I chucked everything not on plan out of my side of the pantry/fridge (live with a roommate). It's weird to think about preparing for this life change but I started tracking everything I put into my mouth and dragging my ass to the gym to walk 3x a week. I've actually lost 10 lbs already! ?? My mind has always been very all or nothing and I'm sick and tired of doing nothing.

Are there any other July sleevers starting this Journey with me??

Age: 21

Welcome, Taylor!!

I had the RNY 10 years ago, but I noticed you are in the Houston area, too. Dr. Davis was my surgeon.

Best wishes on your journey!!
