Well tonight as I sit here typing on the computer, I keep saying to myself "I can't believe it's really here".  The time is now, no more weeks, months, years or centuries.  It is my time.

Had a beautiful dinner tonight with my husband's family at outback.  I think tonight was the first time since I started the pre-op diet that I have even felt tempted at all.  The appetizers especially, looked and smelled amazing.  However, I did not even have one bite.  I ordered a six oz steak and gave Stevie a sliver, had a salad with no croutons/cheese or dressing and asparagus spears.  I find myself analyzing ever bite I put into my mouth.

When I first got to work this morning, I was sitting there and every ring on my hands (I wear five of them) were spun around and so was my watch.  It was the first time I realized, wow, I am actually starting to loose weight and seeing the results.  Crazy fast.

We fly out tomorrow morning @ 8:05 am and will hopefully have a very relaxing before the fun starts on Monday/Tuesday.  Work is behind me and the rest of my new life is in front of me and I am so excited to start!
