It's great that you're not getting any pain from the braces! Do you think its going to change once the wires and bands go in?
I assume that everything will become clear to me on wed... lol I'm prepared for the worst!!!
Great idea about the hat! I'm sure there will be plenty of time for all three colours and even mixing two at a time if you get brave
I have another friend on here that loves teal blue so there's another tick for teal 
Lets hope the fish gets dislodged without the spacers before Thursday!!
I am like I better enjoy these pain free days that I am having now bc it may change Thursday for the worse. I went to the store and have stocked up on the soup. I was able to use the waterpik to get most of the fish out,but did not want to over do it and blast the spacers out. LOL!! I think with the bands and wires I will have pain for a couple of days, but I will be able to eat and floss with out worrying if I am going to loose a spacer.
. Although you could feel some discomfort for the first few days, it does get better. I remember it well and was on a soft diet for a little while. It was good to get back to 'normal' food though. Once the weeks go by, you'll probably only notice some discomfort for a few days after an adjustment and then hardly any at all the rest of the time until your next appointment (maybe this varies, I'm just talking from my experience). It's worth it though! I find a lot of people (including myself) question things if we don't experience any discomfort lol, we like to feel it as it reminds us stuff is happening and teeth are moving. Although now I'm 20 months in I don't get any discomfort but can still see things are moving. 
I am not sure if you have already had your appointment but if you have I hope all went ok and you've been able to floss those back teeth!
The reason I have to get them out is because he had a more in depth look at my x-rays and my upper arch is higher than the lower and to pull the lower one back so my bite will be just right at the end of treatment I will need the lower 1st bicuspids removed. The second reason for the removal is because I also had two teeth pulled at the top because I broke them and to line everything up he would also like for the same number of teeth to be on the top and bottom. I am so scared about the extractions bc a month ago is when I had one of the upper one removed because it split in half when I broke it and I ended up with dry socket. I think what I am going to do this time is just to have him pack the extractions sites so I will not have to worry about the dry socket this time. If anyone has had the bicuspids pulled how was it?? I was told the bottom teeth are not as bad as getting your top teeth pulled. The only bad thing is I will have one pulled on both sides which will make it hard to almost impossible to eat. Please let me know if you have any food suggestions! So, since I am getting them extracted on next Wednesday the ortho want to give me at least two weeks to heal before he puts the wire and bands on the bottom and plus they said it make take just that much time to make space on the bottom since my teeth are so close together. Like this morning she had a very hard time removing the blue spacers and trying to insert the purple ones. They made a joke and said if anyone ever hits me in the mouth I will not have to worry about it breaking because I had a very rigid bone structure. The spacers are not that bad as I still do not feel pain as I didnt feel pain the first go round, but boy oh boy do I feel pressure on my top arch where I got the wire. As soon as she put it on I started to feel pressure so maybe it is good I didn't get the bottom wire today. I am trying to hold off on taking pain med, but I may end up taking 2. I can only imagine how my teeth would feel if I got both arches wired today!! I can actually chew better now since the top spacers are gone. Glad I ate when I first arrived home because I do not think I can bear eating now because my whole top arch is in pain at the moment, well not actually pain, but I feel pressure and it feels more like a toothache. Well, I will put up pictures later from today as I am suppose to be going to the movies, so hopefully this movie will take my mind off this pain. It is amazing how you start to feel it right when they insert the wire. She told me I may have to call before my next appointment on the 14th to come in and get the wire trimmed because the ortho and dental assistant said your teeth really move fast the first couple of week. That is all for now family. Look later on for pics!!
