You are right about the snuggies. They are not perfect. I love your idea of an eternity ring. They are so beautiful and when they spin, you won't miss their beauty. I guess the lapbanders who love jewelry will work around this side effect of losing weight. Its amazing the ideas we get from this site to help with our journey.

Oh, here's another idea for the jewelry lover during weight loss phase. Buy a ring that fits. Wear it and love it. It gets too big, move to right hand (mine is a bit bigger than my left hand) or to a larger finger, and get a new ring that fits!

Building the jewelry wardrobe is fun! But expensive. :thumbup:

I am also considering having several rings melted down to create a brand new ring in my new size.

Wow, all of you had your rings resized so many times. I actually gained 100 pounds since my wedding and have never had to have my ring resized. It still fits, granted I have to lotion up my hands to get it on and I have to wash my hands w/cold soapy Water to get it off, but I take it off and put it on several times a day without any real problem.

It was a little loose when I first got engaged, but the jewelry store encouraged me not to get it sized down. They said it would be better to have it a little loose for when my hands swelled in the summer. Maybe the guy was actually thinking when I gain 100 pounds. LOL

I wear my engagement ring to work and when I go out, and it's a 1.08k solitaire.

My current engagement ring is quite small, but is a lovely stone and shows lots

of colors.So I want to upgrade that because A larger stone may not have the

quality of smaller ones .

I waited a little over a year to get my wedding ring sized.It;s actually at the jewelers right now!lol! After 60 lbs lost i went down only 1 1/2 ring sizes..I was surprised...But you all are right sizing dose weakin the setting because when I first got the ring and they had to size it to a sz 9 after wearing it for awhile the diamond became loose in the setting,so be careful.I too am working on my hubby for a new ring as our 15th anniversary is coming up this summer!!:thumbup:

      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!!

      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.
