"Strained carrots for Maggie, strained carrots for Grampa!" ("Who Shot Mr. Burns? Part I" for the unfamiliar)
Well, it was close, I had mashed potato and steamed carrots (mashed up but not strained). And some grilled salmon. I mostly ate the potato as it required the least amount of work to eat. (I can't open my mouth properly and I can't chew food--my molars are near-unusable.)
I knew having your bottom ones out was worse than the top ones, but dang. I guess it's worse because I had both sides done at once, so I can't just chew on the other side. Still hurts to talk (my mother rang, I thought I could talk, but a 90 second conversation was all I could manage).
Oh well. Bright side: it's a great start to a diet as long as I don't start surviving on milkshakes. There is a pint of Haagen-Dazs in the freezer.... Oh, and it's enforced choco-detox; it might break the binge cycle.
