I feel for you. There are a lot of things you won't be able to eat for a while until your mouth adjusts to all its new construction :). When I first got my braces I lost about 10lbs that first month, just from all the eating restrictions. I ate a lot of soup, spaghetti, and smoothies.

That sucks. I was able to eat anything that wasn't sticky when I had spacer because they didn't hurt at all.
