    I'm impressed they got the fudge bars in. After my wisdom teeth came out, my jaw was so painfully stiff I couldn't even get a teaspoon in my mouth. I wound up licking the chocolate baby food from the spoon in tiny licks like a kitten. (My family thought this was utterly hilarious.) I lived off chocolate baby food, chocolate ice cream, and vanilla yogurt for a week.

    Are you absolutely positive each bar is 80 calories?

    Oh my! When I had my wisdom teeth taken out it was horrible. It was probably 2 days before I could deal with food. I remember only eating a little jello the first few days. Eat what you are able to eat and don't worry about the calories while you mend!

    Really??? I had all 4 out and was fine by the next day. Had a cbeeseburger and fries. I guess everyone heals differently.

    Maybe. If you've been eating low carb and now indulge in carbs, then water retention will happen and cause weight gain.

    2 weeks before I could even chew soft broccoli for me. Horrible!

    Bullshizzle. I had my wisdom teeth out AND a bad root canal pulled. My mouth was literally stitches. I ate yogurt, soup and jello. So go ahead and eat 5 more bars and try to justify it. It doesn't fly with me. If you gain weight don't whine about it.

    I have to ask: what is chocolate baby food?

    This stuff: chocolate custard baby food

    Word of warning: make sure it's the proper chocolate, not the choc banana. That was gross.

    Eat what you can(are able to) in your range goal until your teeth are healed I'm sure it will not harm you any.

    I had oral surgery last month- fudge bars weren't on my 'able to eat' list, but fudgesicles were. Cool, icy, chocolaty goodness. But I was on primarily liquids and only managing about 900-1000 calories a day. Actually maintained for those two weeks. Remember that your body is healing- a little sugar and fat might actually be a good thing. :)

    It's not the food, is the calories, just keep logging the numbers are never wrong.

    Can you tell me the brand of the fudge bars? I'd like to try one if it only has 80 calories.

    Yasso's frozen yogurt fudge bars are 80 calories, and tasty!


    Anyway, 5 fudge bars in your calories is fine, but stuffing yourself with junk food just because of the 'wisdom teeth' excuse is not very smart... it's perfectly doable to follow a balanced diet even if you can't have solid food (I had 2 impacted teeth removed 2 years ago - at 36, so no spring chicken - and couldn't eat much for 2 weeks, still managed to stick to my goal).
