Ouch!

I had been tossing around the idea of getting braces for quite some time and today, I took the plunge! I've heard stories, good and bad, and wasn't exactly sure how to proceed. I've always wished my teeth were more straight so I thought it was now or never. In fact, time passes so quickly, that I figured "Why not?"
I was a bit nervous as my appointment time grew closer. Once I got settled in, everything was A-OK. It really wasn't painful at all and it simply feels annoying to have something on your teeth. I realize that many of you have already "been there, done that", but this is all new to me! I am also pretty self-conscious about my new look, but I'm staying focused on the end result: a beautiful smile!
I did try to have soup for dinner and it was really awkward trying to eat it. I've found ice cream is much easier to tolerate! Is there such a thing as an ice cream diet? :)
Have a good night!
