I am only 30 pounds down and I can tell that my wedding rings are getting loose!

I don't want to resize till goal.. How did you deal with this? Will a jeweler put a guard on them?

Weird questions I know.. But.. just one of those things that can annoy a person :thumbup:

I'm down 35 and the rings are spinning and I'm careful when my hands are wet. I'm going to go to Walmart and buy a 3mm white gold band that is smaller than my current rings and slip that on till I get to goal and have them sized.

Congratulations - what a good "problem" to have!

I just got back IN to my wedding ring and my husband plans on recreating a whole new ring for me when I hit my goal weight. <---maybe you can work out a deal with YOUR hubby? :thumbup:

carolwright.com sells ring guards really cheap that might work for you. :thumbup:

look into getting "ring snuggies" (roughly $3.00 and you can buy them online) they are basically sizers that will help you wear your rings if they are getting too loose. The only problem I've come across is that my fingers are even too small to fit into my rings WITH the snuggies on... So I just wear my ring as a necklace and when I get to goal (close to the time I'm getting married) my guy is just going to buy me a new set of rings.

I stopped wearing my wedding ring because I didn't want to chance losing it. I have several different bands that I trade out or I wear the first ring that hubby ever bought me.

I have the same issue. the ring guards were awesome the first week they were on the rings but as I worked they flattened out and were just uncomfortable.. I went online and bought a really nice looking cubic and silver wedding band set.. you can get them cheap enough now and they are surprisingly real looking; my co=workers thought I got an upgrade from my hubby.... this is just until I reach goal then I'll have my real ones re-sized.. Good luck!!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
