I blame Orbitz and their bucket o-gum.

I found a way to solve my gum addiction, snacking addiction, coffee addiction and diet soda/tea addiction!

(apparently I have an addiction problem. who knew. Why can’t I get addicted to say WORKING OUT or doing laundry I wonder?)

Anyway. My answer?

Invisalign.

And soon I will have the teeth of a super model when I am finished in 6 months as well. Let me explain…

I went to the OC famous Dr. Fischer today and got my first pair of Invisalign tray thingies to start the process to turn my slightly weird teeth placement  back to the way my first orthodontist in 1980 intended. You know…STRAIGHT. (I talked about my consultation and my fat tongue here if you would like to catch up.) So they popped them in, and they felt well…kinda FUNKY. Not painful. Not bad. Just sorta tight. But as I type it has been less than 30 minutes and they are already feeling more normal.

Wanna see them?

Just try…

They are really invisible!

And they make your teeth super shiny.

Looks like I got a new top coat on my teeth…

But the one thing I didn’t count on was having to give up chewing gum cold turkey.

So this is going to be very interesting.

I wonder if Trident makes a patch to help with withdrawals?

And the coffee/diet coke thing? It stains them…so that is off limits as well. (*loop hole is a STRAW. Awesome)

I can take them out to eat and that is it. And since I am so lazy, maybe this will help me lose weight too.

Could Invisalign be the answer to all my problems?

Let’s wait and see….

UPDATE: I received via Fed Ex about an hour after posting this….a YEARS supply of gum from Trident. (thanks Trident) Oh the irony.
