Peanut Butter & Jelly!!!!!-1 month, 11 days since surgery

    I was able to eat a pbj yesterday! They are one of my favourite foods and I was really starting to miss them. I had my post-op orthodontics appointment the 20th and was disappointed to find that my surgeon was not able to make it in that day. My orthodontist was not willing going to move my diet until he talked with my surgeon so my food remained the same:( My surgeon did give me a call two days ago and ask me what food I had been craving. I said pbj and he told me that as long as I keep to soft breads that I should be fine :D I'm soooo glad I can quench my peanut butter and jelly cravings!!!! Well, that's all. Sorry for the long wait between posts. G-bye
 
   P.S. since it has been a month since surgery I hope to do a quick "before and after". It will be only the first to come. I'm wanting to do multiple to show my progress.

Day 18 Post-op

    Went to the Doctors on Saturday. I thought my Doctor was just going to put the elastics that close my mouth back on. Big Surprise!! He didn't!! He did put elastics on but I can open my mouth pretty far. I have already eaten pudding, ice cream, breakfast ice cream (it's like a smoothie but a lot thicker) and yogurt. It's feels really nice to be able to eat something that isn't just liquid.
     My energy has been slowly coming back. The only issue I have been having is sleeping 11-13 hours a day. I feel like I'm lossing half my day! If I wake up any earlier though, I feel like I can barely do anything.
     Going to Doctors tomorrow. Hopefully my sergeon will be taking off the bands and I will be free!! Well, almost free...I'll probaly have to wear them when I sleep. That's all for right now. I should have a post either tomorrow or the next day.
