Well, they are off! It's been a few days now and still feels weird!!! Crazily enough not ONE PERSON has noticed!!! (Other than my fiance and family, who all knew I was going in that day.) None of my co-workers or friends have said anything. It's crazy. I guess my braces were never really noticeable before. I will be sure to post the whole story and pics as soon as I upload them. :)
