Congrats! I'm 26 and hitting my month mark tomorrow! It gets better, believe me! After the first week, I had resigned myself to never eating again, but you will be able to eat most things eventually. I got ceramic on top too and love them. I had someone tell me the other day that she'd just noticed I had braces. It took her three weeks! Yay! I wasn't prepared to not be able to bite down. That was super annoying. It improves pretty quick, though. Good luck!
