Ring and shoe size change?



Recommended Posts

Has anyone noticed significant changes in ring or shoe size after their weight loss? I'm a mother of twins and alot of girls in my club had shoe size changes after their babies were born. Imagine throwing out a closet full of size 7 shoes and starting over! Thanks everyone!

I have lost 2 ring sizes and have ring guards on my wedding and engagement rings (I still want to wear them) I am almost down 100 and plan on taking them all to the jewlers when I am down 125 to get them all resized. As for my shoe size when I got pregnant with my first son I wore a size 9 then when he was born I was up to a 10, then the second child came along and I was a HUGE size 11 now becuase of the weightloss I am back to a 10 and I hope I will get back into my 9's. I have saved all my good shoes in 9's and 10's but am happy to throw out the 11's

I have lost significant ring sizes and have had to resize in order not to lose my rings. BE CAREFUL! You don't want to find out the hard way that your heirloom engagement ring is too big.

My feet have not changed, much. I've always been a 10 and still am. I don't need a wide anymore, though. :)

Shoe size was one of the first things I noticed. I've returned to my 'normal' size of 6.5, some 6's. Rings, definitely 1 size.

My wedding band falls off about 5 times a day currently. Been meaning to go get a ring guard, as this one can't be resized. Guess I should do it sooner rather than later :/

My shoes have gone from a size 9 to a size 8 .. but if I buy knee high boots, I still get the 9 for the extra room in the calves (mine are soooooooo fat lol).

I'm having fun wearing all my cool rings that didn't fit five months ago. Yesterday I wore one that hadn't been worn in a long time. I don't have a wedding ring so I have fun wearing all kinds of different rings. I am SO VERY happy about this.

My shoe size hasn't changed dramatically, just from a wide 9 to a regular 9. Would love to get back into all my 8 1/2's I have stored in my basement.

When I've lost significant weight before I've had to get ring squeezies (was never trusting enough my weight would stay off to get a full resize), tighten my watches, and I've had my shoe size go down as much as 2 sizes and fron Wide to Normal.

My shoe size hasnt changed at all on the way up, nor through 3 pregnancies so I doubt it'll change on the way down - but I have recently had to get orthotics and now I cant wear any shoes except my running shoes :-( - I need all new shoes.

I've had my rings resized larger twice over the past 10 years so no doubt they will need to go down again over time.

My shoe size has stayed the same, but my engagement ring is now on my middle finger. I had it resized up when I put on all my weight, it got to the stage where it was too tight on my finger, now it just falls off. I think it may be 2 sizes or so I have gone down....I wish it would come off like that on my belly. :)

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
