goodbye food

[rogue_gerbil]

I ate everything on my food "bucket list".  Chicken nuggets, mac n' cheese, pizza, steak, mashed potatoes, spaghetti... and last night topped off the week with a night out at "the melting pot" (fondue restaraunt) with my friends.  When I popped the chocolate covered cherry into my mouth I realized that I couldn't top that perfect ending.  Rather than follow up a glorious meal with my usual rushed sandwich for lunch and cheerios for dinner, I decided to start my pre-surgical fast today instead of tomorrow.  Let that chocolate covered cherry be my last toast to food.

9 day fast starts today.  9 days till surgery.
