MY NAME IS DENISE AND I HAVE BEEN IN BRACES SINCE AUG. 2005. I CAN'T WAIT TO EAT FOODS FROM THE FORBIDDEN LIST.
WHAT DO YOU WANT TO EAT ON YOUR DEBANDING DAY?
I CAN'T WAIT UNTIL I CAN EAT A SNICKERS BAR AND PEANUT BRITTLE
I was debanded almost a month ago. The first thing I had was a sandwich. It was heaven not having tons of bread stuck. Then I had a Tangy Taffy bar. Later that night I had popcorn. It is a wonderful feeling eating naked!
Good luck you guys!
That will be:
A golden delicious apple peel and all
A Cadbury's Fruit and Nut and not worry about the nuts
As many peanuts that are in the bucket just before my steak comes
Everything without fear of knocking off a bracket or having to clean it out.
Seriously I miss those things but I don't really crave them. I've just adjusted to not having them.

I wore braces (this time) for 1294 days or 3 years, 6 months and 17 days.
But who's counting?

Thanks for praying for me and thinking happy thoughts.
Well, I dreamed about ribs, corn on the cob and a caramel apple for dessert. But . . . my daughter had band practice last night (my debanding day) and we couldn't go to a restaurant. So, I had spaghetti and salad with honey mustard dressing. It was good though - no worries about staining my ligs or having lettuce stuck in my brackets.
I can't wait to go to the movies to see Shrek 3 and eat a TUB of popcorn!

If you were like me, there's still plenty of time for that.
Let's see, two summers, at least.

I cannot eat strips of bacon, cereal, ice cream cones, nuts, ice, the rolls at Texas Roadhouse are yummy but they hurt.
I am going to try sausage today we will see how that goes.
iborg, you totally reminded me of Texas Roadhouse when you mentioned the peanuts in the bucket. I ate there yesterday for dinner but had to have chopped steak instead of my usual chicken fried steak.
Dont worry I get my chewing in but I am not trying to break another bracket before the 17th.
I'm definitely going to have an apple; Maybe even a toffee-apple, two "banned" foods in one go!
A crusty bread roll will be great too, no more pain eating it and spending the next 30 minutes poking my tongue around the brackets for remains.
Roll on the summer, this talk is making me feel hungry.
