I slept just about as well last night as the night before. I'm sure tonight will be no different. I'm still starving today. I'm sure tomorrow will be no different. Tired and hungry. Whyyyyyyy oh whyyyyy.... I've heard a couple folks say, "I lost 15lbs when I got my braces on!" It's because you're hungry all the time and there's nothing you can do about it.
All of my teeth feel like they have something stuck between them. They don't, that's just the best way to describe the sensation. The insides of my cheeks are scraped up and my tongue is raw from running over the braces to dislodge gunk that gets trapped up in there. And, true to the ortho assistant's word... today is the worst of the pain. It's still not as bad as I thought it would be, but that doesn't mean it isn't THERE. This constant tenderness. My mouth is a pit of misery.
Flossing was a bit easier tonight. Using the threader is becoming more routine, so this is good. But OMG was I sore after.... UGH.
I plowed my way through some Craisins, too. It was hard, but I wanted them, dammit =)
