How long does It take for the holes to cover and to be able to eat normal food after wisdom teeth removal? (Photos)

Sam89
I just had all 4 of my wisdom teeth removed on 6/17/13 and had a few questions. When can I have normal food like pizza? When can I drink out of a straw? When will the holes fully cover? Why is there a loose skin on the side of my back molar that was next to my wisdom tooth?
