I just realized I can now take off my wedding ring without using Windex! Lol I had to use Windex to get It off before my surgery on Halloween.

In a couple of months you will have to stop wearing it because it will start to slip right off. I am 4 months out from surgery and have lost a total of about 85 pounds (45 pre surgery). My wedding ring is a size 7 and I am now wearing a size 4 3/4 to 5. I can't believe how little my fingers are now. This is such crazy fun stuff!

Congrats my friend! Your doing great!

IMO the first NSV is always the best... because it's living proof it's working!! Congrats, this is always a really good one too. I agree with ShellBear, be prepared your rings will be fallen off ya soon... be careful more like it. You don't want to lose them. :)

My feet went from 10.5 to 9 or 9.5 and I got rid of LOADS of awesome shoes. Sigh.

My rings started at size 8 and now I'm about a 6.

my hubby bought me a ring and it was a size 7 but i just couldnt wait to wear it so i had it sized higher to 9 and it is lose on me now. i went from a size 11 to the 9 and now it is prob an 8. my shoes i am not sure what it is now but i know that the last time i wore my heals they fit just fine then when i went to church the were moving to much and i ended up with blisters on both big toes so telling you don't force yourself to wear them no matter what that hurts lol!

Congrats Bonbon! Good feeling!! I just got my ring resized to bigger. :P I can't wait for the other direction. I also can't WAIT for my feet to shrink! They're too fat to have very many shoes. I'm the only woman I know with less shoes than her husband. Surgery on 2/13/12. Can't wait!

I have a seiko watch that I have always loved. When I first got it I had a link taken out so it would not dangle around... then it got so tight I couldnt wear it, I lost the link. I put it up for years... I just got it back out and it fits great! Woohooo! I can also wear my wedding rings and my thumbring again....Down 55 pounds!

The sad news is that I went on vacation in Brazil this spring at my heaviest and bought jewelry. It wont fit anymore and I am going to have to have it resized! Yay, sort of....

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
