Soup and Smoothie Diet

I think Periodontists should totally revamp their branding strategy.  Instead of telling people they are going for a gum graft, tell them they are going to lose 5 pounds or your money back.  It is really hard not to lose weight when you can't eat anything but soup and smoothies!  I had the second half of my gum graft surgery yesterday - the first was a year ago - and it is as annoying as I remember.  But after 24 hours of mostly smoothies, some soup and a cappuccino, I feel lighter already.  Hungry.  But lighter.
