Aww, thanks to all of you! You're so gracious.
As for how they feel....weird! I keep doing the whole tongue sweep to make sure I don't have any food stuck in my braces and lo and behold they're not there!
They have shifted already. I see little spaces have formed in a few spots, but I fully expect my retainers to get them back where they should be. I get those tomorrow.
I was one who didn't really cut back on anything. I broke pretty much all of the no-no's as far as eating went. But I do have to say, it is so nice to eat something stringy and not have to spend hours picking it out of my braces!
Thanks again to everyone!

Thanks!bracedagain wrote:Hey girl - Looking good!! And feeling better too I'll bet!!
Congrats on your braces off day!
Heard you had some nasty weather in Wyoming!! My nephew is a truck driver and was going through on I-80 and said it was BAD. He was hoping to get to Twin Falls Ida. by that night to stay. he's on his way to Seattle. Hope he made it!
Go # 8 for the rest of the season!!
I wouldn't know about Wyoming, I live in Montana. Hope your nephew made it ok too.
Thanks to all the rest again for the congrats. It is really exciting, but also a little worrisome. My teeth have shifted quite a bit in the day and half that the braces have been off. I've got spaces opening up in quite a few different spots. I hope those retainers put them right back where they were.

Thanks, Chris! ( momof2grlz)
I went in and got my retainers today. I was a little panicky because I've seen how much my teeth have shifted. She had me put them in there. Wheweeee, the top was so darn tight! There hasn't been movement on the bottom so that one wasn't bad, but that top one....ouch! I'm off to take big doses of Advil!

What? Does Jose have bad teeth? I guess I didn't notice with the rest of the package being so well put together.

Well how bout that! Didn't know that. Those goalies are pretty well protected. That Jose, he is a vain one I must say.
