Guest guest Posted June 16, 2005 Report Share Posted June 16, 2005 Sher, today is day 10 post-op for me. I am sure you will be fine getting in the mashed potatoes tomorrow once you are unwired. I know other people on this board have been having an easier time eating that I have so don't take me as an example. I think my problem is that when I try to open my mouth I get scared that something will come undone so I freeze and can't get any food in. At least this is what I am telling myself is my problem. I'll try again tomorrow. Goodness 5 babies?! I want to have three and I was worried that would be too much but if you're telling me orthognathic surgery is worse than child labor, well then I'll take your word for it! Thanks for the story about your friend who first felt ugly and then beautiful. I will make sure to remind myself of her every day:-) Sara > > Sher, > > > > I just looked at your pics and you are recovering really well and you > > look good!
