Eating with Braces - Week One

The Lobster Trap
Eating with braces is like have a lobster trap under your lip; anything nearby gets curious and swims on in. After eating, I feel like I did pretty well keeping food out of there. A spot check of my tongue proves an 'all clear'. Then I'd go to brush my teeth and discover I've caught half a ham sandwich, a small grouper and two scallops !

Menu for the first week:
  • Applesauce
  • Mashed potatoes
  • Soup
  • Yougurt
  • More soup
  • More Applesauce
  • Soup anyone?

My favorite food find the first week was Cracker Barrel's Chicken-N-Dumplins. Those dumplings are the consistency of jelly fish so they slide right down with no chewing required.
