I have experienced within the last week that I can no longer wear my wedding band. So yesterday I took it off and until I lost my 100pounds I am not going to have it resized. I do have my great great grandmothers wedding band that I can almost wear. My husband thought I was taking my ring off for good, but I just don't want to lose it. Too many people that mean too much to me are within my wedding band.

Interesting you should post this today. My husband just picked my rings up yesterday. I had to have them sized down one size...my wedding rings and my grandmother's wedding ring. I had actually thought I had lost my grandmother's ring because it slipped off my finger. Luckily I found it inside the zipper pocket in my purse. It had come off when I was putting my keys in! So that did it for me! Straight to the jewelers they went. $60 well spent!!!

:whoo:

I had this happen to me and I was lucky enough to find it. BUT I did get it resized and voiced my concern about having to have it done over and over. Well turns out that my jewler lets you resize it for free after the initial sizing as long as it is just 1 size. SO there is no need for me to wait anymore, I am wearing them on the wrong hand again. lol...

I'm in the same boat. My rings were too big when we got them, and then I had surgery and they just continue to be way too big. They slide around and never look 'set' like they're suppose to. The engagement ring would NOT stay on my finger if I didn't have the wedding ring that holds it on. I want to get them resized, but waiting as long as I can. The place we got the rings only warranties the diamonds if you use them to work on the rings, and DH bought them in TN (argh!) so it's a couple hours away. They are size 11 (eng) and 10 (wedding) and I think I'm a solid 9 right now. I still have a while to go, and may take mine off if they both start sliding off.

During one of my "yo-yo" diets, I had lost about 60 lbs. My wedding ring no longer fit snug enough to stay on my finger. We went and bought a MUCH less expensive silver ring to substitute until I got to my goal weight. Well that never happened! I think this time around I will get there. By the way, our wedding rings are James Avery, if anybody knows who that is?

Here is the site. Pretty cool jewelry.

I got my wedding ring resized about a month ago, its got channel set diamonds in it and would shift around too much on my finger and never be front and centre. Its coming on Summer here, so I am going to wait to get my engagement ring done til after I see if my fingers still swell with the heat, then I'll get it done too if I need it, I predict I will.

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
