The Best Weight Loss Plan

I have figured out the secret to great weight loss!  There are so many diets out there and so many books, that I figured I couldn’t possibly come up with a miracle weight loss plan and be so successful. Want to know what it is?  Have something go wrong with your teeth!

I have a confession, and it involves the dentist.  I am one of “those people” that has a great fear of going to the dentist.  After having some really negative experiences back in my teen years, I avoided it like the plague when I was old enough to make my own decisions about going.  I stayed away for years, because I was totally freaked out.  Gradually I started having teeth that bothered me, sometimes intense pain, but I refused to go.  I k new it was just going to get worse if I didn’t just bite the bullet and go.

Fast forward to now…a cleaning and a few fillings later and my totally awesome dentist, Dr. K… I am now faced with my first ever root canal  EEK!  The tooth in question was giving me trouble before I got brave and went to see her.  It had an old filling, so she took it out and redid it.  After about a week I was in worse pain than before, so I was back in the office.  She took the filling out and put in stuff I call silly putty, and sent me  home with pain meds and steroids in hope it was just inflammation. No such luck.

Well that didn’t work, so she referred me to the endodontist for a possible root canal.  I was a little upset that I had to go to another new place, but the tooth is a tricky one to do a root canal on.  I am a little worried since so far when numb I have been able to fill more than I would like on that tooth, and that is with nitrous oxide and loopy drugs on board.

Back to my point.  If you need a sure fire weight loss plan that you would be able to stick to.  Get yourself a bad tooth, that won’t allow you to eat.  You are guaranteed to follow a strict no food diet because you won’t be able to chew!  I am down seven pounds in just a week.  I wouldn’t recommend this for anyone, but it obviously works when you cannot bite on anything whatsoever without climbing the walls with pain.

Wish me luck at my appointment….I will need it (big baby that I am).
