As odd as it sounds I really want the strawberry mini wheats! I have tried to eat it and it gets all trapped in my wires. I can't wait to floss either! I will still use my water pik though!

Congrats on your debrace date! I am hoping to get mine in the next few months.
2 Years 4 months 3 weeks and 4 days in full metal braces!

woohoo! I'm getting debraced on the 28th!! I've been eating everything you guys mentioned the whole time so it's the FLOSSING i'm really looking forward to! 3.5 years and ready to get rid of braces. And yes, I'm getting a haircut too =) I've already been planning for the haircut before i got the debanding date cuz I'm donating my hair to Locks of Love. This is the bonus =)
