I will also definitely search those threads on molar build-ups! Day two and it still is really frustrating eating - Boy, at this rate, am I going to lose weight! 
Anywho, I'm glad I got braced on a Friday so I have the weekend to adjust. I knew it was going to be an adjustment, but that still doesn't make it any easier - it really, really helps that I have somewhere to go to when I'm totally freaking out about things.
I don't have any friends that have gone through this and my boyfriend is kinda in the dark about what I'm going through too - although he's been pretty good about it so far. I took some pictures of my newly crowned metal-mouth and I was going to post pictures, but I seem to have misplaced my camera cable to upload the pics to my computer. arg!
I'm going to have to look some more (or go buy the store to get a new one if I can't find it) once I'm feeling better and little more energetic. 
I have to say though that I really haven't had any problems with the braces rubbing against my cheek yet.
(Fingers crossed that it stays that way.) I guess the real test will be once I'm at work and having to actually talk!
