Hello all!!!!

I was curious if anyone has lost weight in their hands after gastric bypass? I have very chubby hands (friends refer to them as cabbage patch hands lol)

Yes, I wore a size 12 ring before surgery...now wear a size 8 1/5... had to have my wedding ring resized twice! feels funny to have smaller hands! And also my feet are not as wide...I can wear regular shoes!! not W or WW.

I can't wait to have normal size feet. On the down side, I'll have to get rid of a LOT of expensive wide shoes. My daughter is going to be busy selling things for me online! :-)

my mom got tired of seeing me flop around in the shoes that were too big and took me shoe shopping. First time I've bought new shoes in YEARS! it was fantastic!!

This is what I'm hoping will happen for me. My ring size is 13 now and I didn't even let my husband get me a real wedding band. I couldn't stand the thought of it being a 13. I have picked out a gorgeous set that gets handmade by a jewelry designer in NY. METALICIOUS.COM

Her stuff is awesome and unique which I like. So I am hoping my fingers go down like yours. :-)

Surgery in the morning!!!

My hands have thinned out along with my feet. My feet went from 10w-11 to 9-10 no wide. I haven't resized my wedding rings yet going to wait until 18 months post. But I did try an 8 and it fit. My rings are a size 10. I wear them on a necklace.

Surgery date 7/25/12

After 50 to 70 pounds I got my run sized. After 100 pounds I wear it on my middle finger. I'm hoping to lose another 40 pounds, so maybe I will need a new set!!! :)

      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.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
