I know this is silly but...



Recommended Posts

I am almost at the Drs goal weight, 8 more pounds :smile2:!!! I need to get my wedding rings resized. They are at least a size bigger than what they should be. The problem? I don't want to. They remind me of how far I have come when they slide up and down on my finger and fall off when I take laundry out of the washer and dryer. I have grown accustom to always bending my finger so I don't lose them!!! I know I will get them done eventually (it takes 10 days and I also don't want to be without them that long) but has anybody else experienced this?

I have a suggestion for you. I have these great things on my wedding ring. They are these little nubs at the bottom of band. At first it took a while to get used to, but now I don't even notice it. My hands swell really bad and it allows my ring to stay upright and gives me some room for swelling. I think they would work for you and you wouldn't have to reduce the ring size.

Congratulations on all the hard work!:smile2:

No it is actually 2 pieces of gold on the inside of the band that stick up like little nubs. Your ring will still be loose but it will keep it on your finger. I would send you a pic but I am a total idiot on the computer. My band is pretty thick at the bottom and it is a one piece ring, so that might play into it too. I can't wait until I have the same problem...getting banded in 13 days! Yipppppeeee!

Ok oh I will look into that. Thanks. Congrats on getting banded in 13 days. It is the most amazing thing I have ever done and would do it in a heartbeat again. Just listen to your Dr and do what he says and you will be a success story too!!! Good Luck on your journey and NEW LIFE!!!!!!

I am wearing a tiny thin ring in front of my wedding rings that is the correct size. This keeps my bands in place.

They have some really cute tiny bands out right now.

      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.

        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!
