I think I'm gaining weight from the stress.

I've already lost about 5lbs since I got my top braces in last month.

It's been almost 7 weeks and I've lost 7 lbs. Maybe more since its been a week since I stepped on the scale. I don't own one, so I can only weigh when I visit my mom at her house. I think it's because I'm eating less in general because my teeth get sore quickly and I'm not snacking as often. I don't want to brush that much! I could do with 10 or so pounds gone, but Probsbly not much more than that or I'll start to look ill.
Braces for 18 months/4 days.

I was hoping to lose the extra pounds I've gained after my injuries, but braces so far haven't helped :Questions: To be frank I wasn't eating any junk before braces, so the foods I had to remove from diet were pretty much zero. I even placed a bet with a coworker just right after getting braces to see who is going to lose 10lbs first. I was almost certain braces will help me win, but to my disappointment they didn't. How do you people lose weight because of braces?! I'm afraid I will end up gaining weight by the end of my treatment.

I'm two days in and my diet has definitely changed!! Having different kinds of soup every day. Looking forward to branching out in several days. I sure could benefit losing 10 pounds!!
