Got opened up today! No mouth exercising allowed??

[Guest guest]

Hey everyone,

I got unbanded today! This is it..the end of the being closed-up

phase, and onto the phase of attempting to get real food in my mouth.

I can only open about a half a finger wide (I can't get the whole

finger in..not even my pinkie!). The thing that surprised me was that

my surgeon said for me NOT to do any mouth opening exercises. I

thought this was strange because I have read posts here from people

saying they were told to exercise their jaws. How am I ever going to

make any improvement with opening if I don't exercise it?
