3 weeks post surgery

Yesterday was 3 weeks after my surgery and the past week has gone quite well. 

On Tuesday I went out for a meal, seeing as I can't chew, finding something from the menu was quite difficult. Luckily we went to a Thai restaurant so I had noodles! It was quite nice. 

For the past two days I have been attempting to chew soft things like overcooked pasta, it felt really weird an I couldn't really do it properly - but at least I tried! 

I have another appointment next week to mark 1 month since surgery so I'm goin to ask about chewing and eating then. 

I'm still swollen around my nose and upper lip... Also my right cheek. 
I still don't have any feeling in the roof of my mouth or upper teeth so brushing my teeth is really weird and I'm still feeling tired. 

I start placement properly again on Monday so hopefully will be able to find some food that's soft enough there. I also have a new trainer at the gym who specialises in recovery, so it's all looking up!
