Day 20 - Has it worked?

Well again a rubbish night sleep and then had no motivation to haul myself out of bed so it was lunch time before I got up dressed and had something to eat. I think the not feeling tired at night is because I am not tiring myself out during the day, I am use to doing a 13 hour shift at work with an hour drive there and back and then going to gym as well however now my day goes something like this:

09-12: Get up, shower and get dressed
12 - Lunch (soup)
Afternoon - Chores around house if have motivation, or jobs that need attending
Late afternoon - Try reading etc
Evening - Watch some TV
23:00 - Bed

As you can see totally unfulfilling and boring, but interestingly when you have nothing to do I seem to get a lot less done then when I live my normal busy lifestyle. Time just passes by.

One thing I noticed today, is my gum has started to show when I smile again, this is terrifying me because this is one of the main reasons I had this operation to stop this. I don't know why this is so, one theory is that the elastics have pulled my jaw down this was a risk which is why they don't put them straight on post surgery as the bone isn't healed maybe mine was healed enough 2 weeks after. I have ended up phoning the hospital and am currently awaiting a call back from the doctor just want to know whether I should take them off or not. Although if it has come down there would be no choice but to go back under the knife if I am not pleased. Ahhhhhhh. A lot to think about.

Anyway I will keep you updated with the plan.

  1. Brace yourself (no pun intended) as either way it might mean going back to no chewing. Just remember it will all be worth it in the end x
