I lost my voice but not my boyfriend!

Two and a half weeks in and I'm getting used to my braces. Fortunately the guy I've been dating thinks they look cute so looks like he's a keeper! I'm still getting used to what I feel is a drastic change in appearance but they haven't been a complete blow to my confidence and I'm learning to smile again without being really self-conscious. I've been eating out and have been ordering most of the things I'd normally eat. The first time I went out with the braces to a restaurant I only ordered dessert but since then I've eaten a whole rack of ribs!
I lost my voice after the first weekend and can't be sure if it was due to straining it talking with the braces or if I caught a bug! It came back after a couple of days which was good because I kind of need it for my job!
My teeth have already moved a little, so that's reasurring, it's nice to know the braces are working! My only moan at the moment is the wax coming off and feelng like a fish caught on a hook when they dig into the sides of my cheek but I'm getting better at wedging it in place!

Good luck with your mouth toughening Sheba and it's great that you're becoming more comfortable with your braces!
