Week 1 ++ on braces

First week, and 2 days. Been a little busy this recess week!

Well...the first 2-3 days after putting on braces were...quite painful! Especially the 2nd day where the teeth all started feeling extremely sore. Like having the entire front 16 +/- teeth all having toothaches at the same time. I found it hard to eat food.

I wanted to make note of the food I ate, but I can now only remember roughly. The first meal on the 2nd day was instant oatmeat+milk powder and soya bean milk. I simply cannot remember what I had on the 2nd day. But in short, the diet of the week was quite. amazing. In all likelyhood, I had yong tao fu on the 2nd day for dinner. The 3rd day being saturday, I had...yong tao fu again! - It's going to be my main choice for food for the days to come. On that very day, I had Cafe Cartel's St.Louis Pork Ribs. Amazing right?! I mean, I always thought people ate porridge and the likes for the first week or even 2nd week!

That was the start of my hard food(harder food) intake. I could say...I pretty much am able to resume normal diet. Except that I still feel a little ache at the front so I don't use much force in biting food with them, but rather using a pulling action to tear food and mainly chomp them with my molars.

So a suitable diet consists mainly of:
1) Oatmeal
2) Milk
3) Porridge
4) YONG TAO FU (healthy and easy to bite! food of e year award!)
5)Ribs, if you dare. Pretty soft actually if u use molars.
6)Burgers, bite using pre-molars
7) Chap Chai Peng or Mixed rice (dishes are bite sized usually...not a problem to use the molars)
8)---wait..that's basically everything!
9)Yes....that's if you have functioning, non-aching tooth like mine. I'm really thankful lol.

That's about all. No photos since movements can't be that soon, nor would it be obvious on photo.
Hope to post on time next thursday.
Okie!
