so it's been about 2 weeks since my expander has left my mouth, and it seems like im always hungry now. after i initially got the expander i lost some weight and was never really hungry.but now that its gone i think ive gained it all back! i kinda liked the fact i was losing weight! has this happened to anyone else?
Great, that's something to look forward to. I've lost about 5 pounds since my expander went on and I never feel like eating. I'll probably beef up big time when this thing comes out. Grrrrrr.
Mine comes off day after tomorrow and what I look forward to is getting back my sense of taste! Everything for the last few months with it in has just had an 'off' or metallic taste to it. Nastiness!
Thats not very encouraging. I have TWO expanders coming out tomorrow...
