Along with buying new clothes and shoes, I "suffered" through another intolerable NSV yesterday.

I took my wedding rings in to be resized since they were almost falling off daily. Resizing from a 7.5 to a 5.5 is gonna cost me $100.00. Waaaaah!

This losing weight thing sure sucks! Lol!

Lol!

Same here. The cold weather here is gone (70s right now) but I just HAD to buy a new coat because I am traveling overseas next week. It is the same brand and model than last years, but 2 sizes down AND it won't fit next winter!

Like you said this losing weight thing sucks and is costly! :P

Congrats on your intolerable NSV. lol

I had this problem too, but rather than pay someone to take gold OUT of my rings, I got my husband to finally buy my eternity ring now I am at goal, and my new little ring holds the others on! ;)

I have a "Celebration of Life" formal dinner and dance to attend tonight given by my surgeon... I bought 2 new dresses last week.. went by the store to get pantyhose... saw a black dress that I HAD to have... along w/ a new bra, Spanx and jewelry!!! And $250 later... I forgot my hose!!! LOL

I probably won't be able to wear this dress next week, but Imma wear the heck out of it tonight!!! (And it's 2 sizes smaller that what I normally have to buy in formalwear!!!)

I'm so glad I never got my rings resized as i gained weight. I had mine cut off a year ago and I'm not putting it back on until it fits the way its supposed to! I wear another ring my hubby got me instead.

I've got a diamond anniversary ring hubs gave me on our 10th wedding anniversary that needs a diamond replaced. Going to do that and have the prongs and such checked. It is a bit too small. I can get it on, but it's snug. I thought about resizing it, but I know the weight is coming off so I'll wear a snug ring just to see how long it takes to get looser on my finger! BTW we will Celebrate our 25th this July 11....wow that's about 1/2 of my life! I've got a good-un too! My best friend and soul mate he is!!!

      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.
