What is the first thing you will eat after braces?
I was thinking about what the very first thing will be that I will eat when I get braces off in 22 months
Twix, twix and more twix candy bars!

Girl, you are a model patient... I eat popcorn, chewing gum, Twix, Snickers, gummy bears... All that bad stuff. Granted, none of it tastes as good as it used to.
I will probably eat a whole apple. I love apples, but am too lazy to cut them up, so I think I've eaten exactly two in the past 14 months.

Rofl Cat!!---I absolutely thought of you when I wrote the question--I knew you were a "sinner"--but not that bad!!!
Remember I get the threat of being charged $50 every time I turn around---I think if they could read my mind, they would charge me $50 for even thinking of eating popcorn, twix, snickers--etc,etc,etc!!!!

I AM A SINNER!! I even own a perfume by Kat Von D (tattoo artist) named "Sinner". Don't get me wrong, though... I don't eat all those things on a regular basis. Can't chew gum anymore because of the elastics.
Re: What is the first thing you will eat after braces?
Tough question, when I get my braces off I would probably go for bubble gum first. Before braces, I was that girl that would chew a pack of gum per week, but I haven't even touched gum in 21 months... I also REALLY like popcorn, so I would go to the movies and by some!

Licorice, peanuts, swedish berries and popcorn all washed down with a Coke without a straw!
Re: What is the first thing you will eat after braces?
This is a tough question because there's SO many things that I miss. I will probably go to a movie and get popcorn and Starburst! I have been craving both so much lately. Also, this thread makes me want a Twix lol. I miss almonds, gummy bears, whole apples, raw carrots, and corn on the cob. I think I just miss even being able to chew normally because of these bite blockers. *sigh* 26.5 months to go..
Cat, I am AMAZED that you were able to eat a whole apple! I'm terrified to bite into anything so everything I eat is cut into small pieces first.

Re: What is the first thing you will eat after braces?
I'm also a sinner, I eat practically everything I did before braces. I just can't wait to go out to eat and bite into a huge burger instead of having to pick it apart and make a complete mess!
Re: What is the first thing you will eat after braces?
I think for me it would be veggie fajitas or veggie chillie burritos, or nachos. These are all things i'm not yet up to eating 1 week into braces!

Probably everything and enjoy not having stuff stuck in the brackets!! (i.e. gummy bears, doritios, chips and salsa, sub sandwiches, beef jerky... )
....and I'll be eating soup cuz I want to, not cuz I need to... :p

I found the thin and floppy starter wires were much more difficult to chew with than the thicker ones that were placed a couple of adjustments in. Just be careful and bon appetit!
Re: What is the first thing you will eat after braces?
Sorry, I guess I didn't word my comment properly. I've only eaten 2 CUT UP apples in the last 14 months. No way I would ever try to eat a whole one. I think I would look like this:Rach44 wrote:Cat, I am AMAZED that you were able to eat a whole apple! I'm terrified to bite into anything so everything I eat is cut into small pieces first.
I agree with everyone that I think I will just enjoy not having to immediately pick food out of my teeth in front of people.
Starbursts sound delicious... yum...
Re: What is the first thing you will eat after braces?
- Popcorn (not that I ever ate it often, but I think I will treat myself to them just because I suddenly can again!)
Oh yes, and I will CHOMP on the kernels like there's no tomorrow! :D
- Apples, whole - because I am tired of having to cut them up. Can't wait 'til I am able to sink my jaws into a nice juicy whole apple and crunch with utter satisfaction!
- Gnawing on bones (-_- yes, I miss that part...sucking the last succulent bits off ribs or drumsticks, chomping on the marrow {my favourite part!}, etc)
Although during my first day in braces I promptly broke off a bracket by attempting to delicately eat a sandwich, I've gotten pretty bold/careless now (chomping on nuts, gnawing on pizza crust, etc) so I haven't let braces stand in the way much of what I can / cannot eat... but it will be awfully NICE to not worry about scraps constantly getting stuck in the brackets...yes indeed.

Oh, I forgot to add sticky candy! I love Starbursts, and Twix and all that jazz...

Re: What is the first thing you will eat after braces?
I eat just about everything...I just eat it differently. One thing I have been unable to tackle is sponge candy (it's a northeast U.S. thing). I will have it on hand the day I go for debracing, which is unfortunately going to be another 12 months or so. I love sponge candy!
