OMG!!!! i just got braces! it really sux. But they're ok i guess. anyway the orthodontist gave me a list of things i cant eat. Which are: ice, nuts, sunflower seeds, beef jerky, and nearly ALL sweets. And i have to be careful with meat, bread, and crunchy things i even have to be careful with fruits and vegetables! I might as well be anorexic! Maybe this will all pay off.
