Weight loss and Wisdom teeth

Hi guys!

Hope you are all well!

I had my fifth weigh-in yesterday, after another hard week at the gym, and it was another very good week!

I lost another 2lbs this week!
Total weight loss so far 12lbs!!!!!!!!!!!
Current weight 10st 6lbs.

I am really happy with the results so far! Two more pounds needed to hit a stone, which means I am not far off being half way to my goal!

Exercise and dieting haven’t been the only things controlling my mind this week. On Wednesday 15^th Feb, I will be having my wisdom tooth extracted

This probably doesn’t sound like much of a big deal to most people, but to me it’s huge, mainly because I am a complete and utter WIMP.

I HATE PAIN!!!!!! A LOT!!!!

I have had a lot of problems with my wisdom tooth in the last three years or so, I have had a number of infections, and it causes me pain on a monthly basis, so I know I have to get it taken out, but I really don’t want it to be painful.

I have also made the situation a whole lot worse by reading various horror stories on the internet of extractions going wrong, and also watching You Tube videos (NOT A SMART IDEA), and have freaked myself out so much more than I already was!

I am also worried as to how this will affect my weight loss. I am presuming that I wont feel like going to the gym for a good few days due to the pain, so I am worried that it may ruin my progress and that I will put weight back on.

Also, I am pretty sure that my diet wont be up to scratch as many people have advised me to stick to very soft foods or liquids as it could be too painful chewing, so I am also worried that I wont be getting all of the vitamins and nutrients that I get in my usual diet, which could again ruin my progress so far. At least I wont be able to eat junk food (every cloud has a silver lining and all that!!), which is definitely a positive!

Oh well, I guess I will know more on Wednesday!!

Have you ever had your wisdom teeth extracted?

How much pain were you in?

Did you suffer from any horrible side effects?
