Wow, this came as a surprise yet not a surprise cuz I've been battling braces for 4 years. Luckily, however, I haven't had any of those appliances or expanders or strange elastics configurations, just triangles and straight lines (separately, though!). One week before, I get molds, and then a retainer. I'll so eat all the things that I couldn't eat before!
Yay me! *jumps up and down, clapping hands!)

Wow! How did you stay motivated for 4 years of treatment? I have my 3 year braces anniversary in two weeks & I am getting tired of the slow progress. Any advice?

Well to answer the first question, I will first eat Haribo gummis because they remind me of my hometown in Berlin. Then I will probably have an apple without slicing up the damn thing. Second question, I got them in seventh grade and school has kept me busy, but for a better answer, my teeth were awful and it is encouraging every appt to see how far I've come. 23 days now yay me!
