Three Weeks Down

It is so crazy how 3 weeks went by and i had my check up with my Oral surgeon on Halloween. Things are going very well and he is so happy and pleased with the way I am healing and recovering. I couldn't be more happier with the results and I am loving my smile again. I can now brush my teeth but i have to be gentle of course. I can suck out of a straw i just can't use one with milkshakes or smoothies. I have 6 weeks left to go and with that i get to start eating again on December 10th. I will be honest nobody understands what this is like and of course nobody will understand cause they have never been through this. If i met someone that went through this i can only say i understand what its like cause honestly i know how it felt to go through this alone while my family tries to understand why i did this. I am a little on the lactose and tolerant side so I can tell when i have to much milk in my system cause i automatically feel sick to the stomach. I have to drink Vitamin D milk which is my choice over nasty skim milk. I honestly can't wait to drink 2% milk again when this is over with. I drink water like its going out of style. I have found i enjoy hot showers because i can't blow my nose so that hot water really hits good and really helps get things loosened up so it comes out easier. I am glad i have a love for drinking Gatorade because Gatorade is a big help in keeping me hydrated. Yeah this is a torture being on this crazy diet but i deeply enjoy it. I get to enjoy eating ice cream, yogurt, pudding, Jello, scrambled eggs, smoothies, milkshakes, cottage cheese, soups, mashed potatoes, applesauce and protein shakes. My mom has made a few dinners that she has been able to purify for me and some of them are a hit and some of them its like gross don't blend that ever again. My Thanksgiving dinner will be different for me i will only get to eat mashed potatoes and stuffing and hopefully pie. This has been a remarkable road to recovery and honestly it has helped me personally grow and it helped me learn that i can remain strong through other difficult trials in my life. I see my Orthodontist for the first time tomorrow since before my surgery happened and i am excited i can't wait till he see's my new results. I am going to shock everyone at his office tomorrow and it will be a  good one. :)
