I doubt most of us are eating less on purpose and nobody should be condemned because they are losing weight due to the pain that they are in.
I know what it's like to taste blood and that can turn anyone off eating! When I have had excess wire at the back, it has only dug into my cheeks when I chew. So maybe switch to smoothies and protein shakes for now and keep rinsing your mouth with salt water. But if you do want to eat, you can enjoy bits of your cheek with your food!
Hehe.
