Huge Nsv!! Wearing My Engagement Ring For The First Time In 4 Years!!!



Recommended Posts

I am so excited!!!!!! I haven't been able to wear my engagement ring since I had my daughter 4 years ago. Yesterday I got my second fill and found I was down another 5 pounds and have officially dropped to below my pre-baby weight... So I decided to try it, and sure enough, it fits!!! While it was very tight at first this morning, my finger seems to have adapted around it and I can now twist it and slide it around on my finger just fine. It's not strangling me!!!

I am so so happy!!!

That is great! I haven't had my first fill yet and I am anxious about it. Was it difficult for you?

They overfilled me at my first fill and I had to go back 2 hours later and get some taken out. When you tell them what you can or can't eat and how you've been doing, make sure you're honest!! I think I exaggerated how much I could eat, because it was more of a comparison than anything else. You'll be fine. Even that hiccup was fine. My second fill was a breeze.

That's great. I have the opposite problem, my rings are now too big so I have to wear them on my middle finger instead. I don't want to pay to get them resized though as in summer my fingers swell and then they would be too small, maybe I just need 2 sets of rings - a summer set and a winter set! Not sure my DH would like that idea!

Get a ring tightener! There are a lot, but here's one link... http://www.amazon.com/Snuggies-Sizer-Assorted-Sizes-Adjuster/dp/B00668J39Y/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1338936908&sr=8-1

      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.
