I miss chewing food! I find it such a weird and gross feeling for the food to get in my braces that I would rather just not chew anything.
oh, I know. That's just not right. only way to eat pizza is to fold it it half and shove it in, oil dripping, cheese oozing.

I LOVE bagels and cream cheese. It's tough to know I won't be able to have one for a long time, and the good thing is, I won't be able to have one for a long time. ;-)

Haha, I eat pizza every Friday. I just cut it up and shove it in the back of my mouth. I eat bagels and apples too... cut up. Steak, candy corn, torilla chips, etc have all been fine for me. The new unwrapped Milky Way bite sized are perfect! The only thing I don't eat is nuts. When I got my braces on the assistant gave me the list of "no no" foods and said "This is the list we give the kids, but you're an adult. If it hurts, stop eating it. Brush after anything messy and you'll be fine." I do waterpik and floss every night. *shrugs*
