Losing weight with braces?!


Question: Losing weight with braces!?
I went from 135 to 120, and this is while I had just gotten braces!. Mainly because I haven't been eating as much, but I was wondering, when you got your braces on, did you seem to eat less and weigh less!? Www@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
That is awesome that you lost 15 pounds, but hopefully it didn't happen in like one week!. That is a drastic weight loss, and may be unhealthy if lost in just 1 week or something like that!.
I had braces, and I wasn't eating anything really because it hurt to eat things!. Actually, everything I ate hurt my mouth!. Thank God my braces are off now!. LOL =]
I seemed to eat less, but I don't think I lost that much weight!. I don't even think I lost any weight!. But I always ate yogurt and icecream!. LOL :D
I hope I helped answer your question!. :)Www@Answer-Health@Com

yes this is the exact same thing that happened to me!.

i was 55kg before i got braces!.

my teeth had hurt for like a week and all i could eat was soup and rice!.

2 weeks later i was just below 50kg!. it is amazing!.

the thing is when you can eat again you go on an eating rampage!.

also when your braces get tightened they only hurt for 2-3 days!.

i think it is because the first time you are not used to the pain!.

they are a good way to lose some weight but they only work once!.

P!.S!. Braces are meant for teeth not weight loss!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

yes!. that happened to me!. also, when i had to get oral surgery to get two teeth removed from under my gum, i lost a lot of weight then, because for like 1-2 weeks all i could eat was yogurt and water!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Ya i started loosing weight and thats when i decided to start working out!. I fell awesome!. Your not fat though your only 135lb right!? your like a stick man or woman!. Sorry!. But I lost 15 LB and gained it all back in muscle!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Nope!. I still eat the foods im not supposed too! I ate taffy!. And all that good stuff!. It doesn't affect you at all as long as you brush 4 times before bed and flouride also water pic thats what i do!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

yes becasue i wasnt able to eat from the pain!. and everytime i get my braces tightened each month, i lose more weight from the ******* pain!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

i ate less when i would get my braces tightened because it would hurt to eat =( if it hurts to eat hard or solid foods, atleast make yourself some warm oatmeal or mr!. noodles or something!. you gotta eat!Www@Answer-Health@Com

I regret getting braces because I was told I couldn't eat certain foods which made me want them more so I ate more than I did without braces and it caused me to gain weightWww@Answer-Health@Com

Well I might've lost a few pounds in the week or two following, but nothing noticeable!. That's really strange that you did, though!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

i lost some weight too!.!.!.but not THAT much!.
i wasn't able to eat anything so i had to eat baby food for 2 weeks!.
