Week Eleven

Hello again! Time is flying by now, I missed week ten but I have returned for week eleven! Not a lot is changing anymore but I see my surgeon on the 27th and my orthodontist on February 19th so maybe I'll at least know the time frame on getting my braces off. Hopefully I'll be able to get them off for my graduation pictures too, just for a day (which might be a pretty big pain but it would be so much nicer! Of course it would sort of ruin the surprise of the 'big finish' I guess)

Anyway, numbness hasn't changed so I'm afraid that it must be here to stay.....goodbye feeling in my bottom right half of lip/gums/part of chin :( 

At this point I still feel like I look swollen but it's almost the three month mark so I'm starting to worry that these puffy cheeks and slight double chin thing is here to stay. I just don't fully get why because I'm fairly healthy for the most part and don't have a whole lot of fat on my (of course I'm not super muscular or anything so maybe I should start working out more hahaha)

I can eat pretty much anything now, although certain foods are hard enough that the way I bite them hurts a little, and I'm still not ready to try something like an almond yet. It's almost three months but that doesn't mean I'm completely recovered! My bones may be healed but they're still fairly weak even with the jaw aerobics as I like to call them. 

Anyway, enjoy these pictures that I took at work hahahah I hate my job (: 

Next time I post I'll be 18 so I shall see you all on the adult side of life!!
